Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 2-Methoxy-6-(3-phenoxy-propenyl)-benzoic acid methyl ester is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-Methoxy-6-(3-phenoxy-propenyl)-benzoic acid methyl ester (CAS 1171921-84-8), molecular formula C18H18O4 and molecular weight 298.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 2-Methoxy-6-(3-phenoxy-propenyl)-benzoic acid methyl ester (C18H18O4) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Methoxy-6-(3-phenoxy-propenyl)-benzoic acid methyl ester meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
