Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Methoxybenzophenone 2553-04-0 Benzophenone, 2-methoxy- Methanone, (2-methoxyphenyl)phenyl- NSC-408008 NSC408008 o-Methoxybenzophenone.

2-Methoxybenzophenone 2553-04-0 Benzophenone, 2-methoxy- Methanone, (2-methoxyphenyl)phenyl- NSC-408008 NSC408008 o-Methoxybenzophenone (CAS 2553-04-0), molecular formula C14H24O2 and molecular weight 224.34 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C14H24O2, 2-Methoxybenzophenone 2553-04-0 Benzophenone, 2-methoxy- Methanone, (2-methoxyphenyl)phenyl- NSC-408008 NSC408008 o-Methoxybenzophenone contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 224.34 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
