Chemical Structure

4-Methoxy-α,α-dimethyl-benzenepropanal CAS 22489-76-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Methoxy-α,α-dimethyl-benzenepropanal 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.

4-Methoxy-α,α-dimethyl-benzenepropanal (CAS 22489-76-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H16O2 and a molecular weight of 192.25 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-Methoxy-α,α-dimethyl-benzenepropanal is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 192.25 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).
