Chemical Structure

3-Cyano-5-(methoxycarbonyl)benzoic Acid CAS 126739-90-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 3-Cyano-5-(methoxycarbonyl)benzoic 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.

3-Cyano-5-(methoxycarbonyl)benzoic Acid (CAS 126739-90-0), molecular formula C10H7NO4 and molecular weight 205.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-Cyano-5-(methoxycarbonyl)benzoic Acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 205.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
