Chemical Structure

4-Formyl-2-methoxybenzoic acid CAS 194928-58-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Formyl-2-methoxybenzoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-Formyl-2-methoxybenzoic acid (CAS 194928-58-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8O4, MW 180.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 4-Formyl-2-methoxybenzoic acid (C9H8O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 180.16 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
