Chemical Structure

1,3-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-propanedione CAS 18362-51-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,3-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-propanedione is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1,3-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-propanedione (CAS 18362-51-1), molecular formula C17H16O4 and molecular weight 284.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1,3-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-propanedione is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 284.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), 1,3-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-propanedione 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.
