Chemical Structure

(+/-)-2-(P-Methoxyphenoxy)propionic acid CAS 150436-68-3 chemical structure

Description

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

(+/-)-2-(P-Methoxyphenoxy)propionic acid (CAS 150436-68-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O4 and a molecular weight of 196.20 g/mol.

The molecular framework of (+/-)-2-(P-Methoxyphenoxy)propionic acid (C10H12O4) 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), (+/-)-2-(P-Methoxyphenoxy)propionic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
