Chemical Structure

(E)-benzyl 3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acrylate CAS 130734-47-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 270.28 g/mol gives (E)-benzyl 3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acrylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

(E)-benzyl 3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acrylate (CAS 130734-47-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H14O4 and a molecular weight of 270.28 g/mol.

(E)-benzyl 3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acrylate (C16H14O4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
