Chemical Structure

(2e)-3-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]prop-2-enoic acid CAS 1415604-30-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies (2e)-3-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]prop-2-enoic acid (CAS 1415604-30-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H16O2, MW 204.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, (2e)-3-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]prop-2-enoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 204.26 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.

CATO manufactures (2e)-3-[4-(2-methylpropyl)phenyl]prop-2-enoic 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.
