Chemical Structure

5-Methyl-6-[(6-methyl-2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)methyl]-2H-1,3-benzodioxole CAS 109733-91-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

5-Methyl-6-[(6-methyl-2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)methyl]-2H-1,3-benzodioxole (CAS 109733-91-7), molecular formula C17H16O4 and molecular weight 284.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-Methyl-6-[(6-methyl-2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)methyl]-2H-1,3-benzodioxole (C17H16O4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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