Chemical Structure

2-Methoxy-4-phenylbenzoic acid CAS 175153-18-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 228.24 g/mol gives 2-Methoxy-4-phenylbenzoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Methoxy-4-phenylbenzoic acid (CAS 175153-18-1), molecular formula C14H12O3 and molecular weight 228.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Methoxy-4-phenylbenzoic acid (C14H12O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Methoxy-4-phenylbenzoic 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.
