Chemical Structure

3,4-Dihydroxybenzophenone CAS 10425-11-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3,4-Dihydroxybenzophenone 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.

3,4-Dihydroxybenzophenone (CAS 10425-11-3), molecular formula C13H10O3 and molecular weight 214.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3,4-Dihydroxybenzophenone (C13H10O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

CATO manufactures 3,4-Dihydroxybenzophenone under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
