Chemical Structure

N-(2-Methoxybenzyl)-3-methylbenzamide CAS 349396-66-3 chemical structure

Description

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

N-(2-Methoxybenzyl)-3-methylbenzamide (CAS 349396-66-3), molecular formula C16H17NO2 and molecular weight 255.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of N-(2-Methoxybenzyl)-3-methylbenzamide (C16H17NO2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO manufactures N-(2-Methoxybenzyl)-3-methylbenzamide 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.
