Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)oxirane-2-carboxylate CAS 33567-53-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)oxirane-2-carboxylate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

CATO supplies Methyl 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)oxirane-2-carboxylate (CAS 33567-53-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H12O4, MW 208.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)oxirane-2-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 208.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
