Chemical Structure

Ethyl (E)-3-[4-(Benzyloxy)-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl]acrylate CAS 178611-06-8 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Ethyl (E)-3-[4-(Benzyloxy)-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl]acrylate (C20H22O5) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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).

Ethyl (E)-3-[4-(Benzyloxy)-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl]acrylate (CAS 178611-06-8), molecular formula C20H22O5 and molecular weight 342.39 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
