Chemical Structure

2-(4-Isopropylphenoxy)propanoic acid CAS 237412-04-3 chemical structure

Description

2-(4-Isopropylphenoxy)propanoic acid (CAS 237412-04-3), molecular formula C12H16O3 and molecular weight 208.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(4-Isopropylphenoxy)propanoic acid (C12H16O3) 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 2-(4-Isopropylphenoxy)propanoic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
