Chemical Structure

(2E)-3-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one CAS 1689543-96-1 chemical structure

Description

(2E)-3-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (CAS 1689543-96-1), molecular formula C18H16O4 and molecular weight 296.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (2E)-3-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (C18H16O4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 296.32 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2E)-3-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one 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.
