Chemical Structure

(2E)-3-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-1-(2-methylphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one CAS 169804-44-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies (2E)-3-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-1-(2-methylphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (CAS 169804-44-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H14O3, MW 266.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (2E)-3-(2H-1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-1-(2-methylphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (C17H14O3) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).

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

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.
