Chemical Structure

Trans-β-methylcinnamate ethyl ester CAS 1504-72-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Trans-β-methylcinnamate ethyl ester 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.

Trans-β-methylcinnamate ethyl ester (CAS 1504-72-9), molecular formula C12H20O2 and molecular weight 196.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Trans-β-methylcinnamate ethyl ester is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 196.29 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
