Chemical Structure

3-Chloro-5-methoxy-4-((2-methylbenzyl)oxy)benzaldehyde CAS 361369-06-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Chloro-5-methoxy-4-((2-methylbenzyl)oxy)benzaldehyde is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 3-Chloro-5-methoxy-4-((2-methylbenzyl)oxy)benzaldehyde (CAS 361369-06-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H15ClO3, MW 290.74 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 3-Chloro-5-methoxy-4-((2-methylbenzyl)oxy)benzaldehyde (C16H15ClO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 290.74 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
