Chemical Structure

3-(3,4-diethoxyphenyl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one CAS 1479723-48-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-(3,4-diethoxyphenyl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one.

3-(3,4-diethoxyphenyl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one (CAS 1479723-48-2), molecular formula C16H20O3 and molecular weight 260.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C16H20O3, 3-(3,4-diethoxyphenyl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 260.33 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
