Chemical Structure

4-(3-Methylbut-2-en-2-yl)benzoic acid CAS 13399-35-4 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 4-(3-Methylbut-2-en-2-yl)benzoic acid (C12H14O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 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).

4-(3-Methylbut-2-en-2-yl)benzoic acid (CAS 13399-35-4), molecular formula C12H14O2 and molecular weight 190.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
