Methyl 2-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propanoate CAS 1249124-99-9 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-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propanoate.

Methyl 2-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propanoate (CAS 1249124-99-9), molecular formula C12H16O2 and molecular weight 192.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Methyl 2-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propanoate (C12H16O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 192.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)propanoate 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.
