6-Methoxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid CAS 106461-96-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 6-Methoxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid 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.

6-Methoxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 106461-96-5), molecular formula C15H20O4 and molecular weight 264.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

6-Methoxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid (C15H20O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
