Description
tert-Butyl methyl ether ROTISOLV® min. 99,8 % GC Ultra Grade is a high-purity ether solvent for gas-chromatographic applications, with CAS 1634-04-4 and empirical formula C₅H₁₂O. Key physical data include a molar mass of 88,14 g/mol, density of 0,74 g/cm³, boiling point of 55,3 °C and flash point of −28 °C, supporting controlled use in GC sample preparation and related chromatographic workflows. The product is packed as 2,5 l in glass and offered in ROTISOLV® GC Ultra Grade quality from manufacturer Carl ROTH for laboratories that require a defined minimum purity of 99,8 %. Its low boiling range and specified density help maintain consistent solvent behaviour during extraction, dilution or injection steps. This tert-butyl methyl ether grade is suited to analytical environments focused on solvents for GC and chromatographic applications where reproducible purity and documented physicochemical parameters are required.
This article is part of HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents, in Solvents. See also Analytical grade solvents (p.a.).

Questions about tert-Butyl methyl ether, ROTISOLV® min. 99,8 %, GC Ultra Grade, 2.5 l, glass
What is this article?
tert-Butyl methyl ether, ROTISOLV® min. 99,8 %, GC Ultra Grade, 2.5 l, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents, inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
HPLC grade limits the absorbance and the residue that would appear as peaks or baseline drift. LC-MS grade goes further on metal ions and on particles that would suppress a mass spectrum. A solvent that is only analytical grade is a false economy on an LC-MS system.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Solvents. The sub-category is HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), Dry & deuterated solvents (NMR, synthesis), Technical & synthesis grade solvents and Green & alternative solvents.
What should I check before I order?
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
