Description
CATO manufactures (2-Hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)(4-methylphenyl)methanone 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.
CATO supplies (2-Hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)(4-methylphenyl)methanone (CAS 1641-17-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H14O3, MW 242.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C15H14O3, (2-Hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)(4-methylphenyl)methanone 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 242.27 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.
