Chemical Structure

2-(2,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethanol CAS 13398-65-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 182.22 g/mol gives 2-(2,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethanol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(2,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethanol (CAS 13398-65-7), molecular formula C10H14O3 and molecular weight 182.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(2,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethanol (C10H14O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, 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.
