Chemical Structure

2-Phenethylmalonic acid CAS 3709-21-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Phenethylmalonic acid.

CATO supplies 2-Phenethylmalonic acid (CAS 3709-21-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H12O4, MW 208.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Phenethylmalonic acid (C11H12O4) 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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-Phenethylmalonic 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.
