Chemical Structure

methyl 2-hydroxy-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylpropanoate CAS 1248492-18-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including methyl 2-hydroxy-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylpropanoate.

methyl 2-hydroxy-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylpropanoate (CAS 1248492-18-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H16O4 and a molecular weight of 224.25 g/mol.

methyl 2-hydroxy-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylpropanoate (C12H16O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, 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.

CATO manufactures methyl 2-hydroxy-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylpropanoate 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.
