Chemical Structure

Ethyl 4-6-O-benzylidene-β-D-galactopyranoside CAS 101833-22-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 4-6-O-benzylidene-β-D-galactopyranoside is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 4-6-O-benzylidene-β-D-galactopyranoside (CAS 101833-22-1), molecular formula C15H20O6 and molecular weight 296.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Ethyl 4-6-O-benzylidene-β-D-galactopyranoside is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 296.32 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
