Chemical Structure

3-((4-Methoxybenzyl)oxy)-4H-pyran-4-one CAS 1333331-84-2 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 3-((4-Methoxybenzyl)oxy)-4H-pyran-4-one (C13H12O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 232.23 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.
