Chemical Structure

(E)-3-(4-methoxy-3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)acrylic acid CAS 1262018-46-1 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of (E)-3-(4-methoxy-3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)acrylic acid (C11H9F3O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies (E)-3-(4-methoxy-3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)acrylic acid (CAS 1262018-46-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H9F3O4, MW 262.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

CATO manufactures (E)-3-(4-methoxy-3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)acrylic 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.
