Chemical Structure

(4-Methoxy-3-(3-methoxypropoxy)phenyl)methanol CAS 172900-74-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (4-Methoxy-3-(3-methoxypropoxy)phenyl)methanol.

(4-Methoxy-3-(3-methoxypropoxy)phenyl)methanol (CAS 172900-74-2), molecular formula C12H18O4 and molecular weight 226.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (4-Methoxy-3-(3-methoxypropoxy)phenyl)methanol (C12H18O4) 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
