Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-(4-ethoxyphenyl)propiolate CAS 221148-26-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 204.22 g/mol gives Methyl 3-(4-ethoxyphenyl)propiolate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Methyl 3-(4-ethoxyphenyl)propiolate (CAS 221148-26-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H12O3, MW 204.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Methyl 3-(4-ethoxyphenyl)propiolate (C12H12O3) 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).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

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.
