Chemical Structure

Methyl 2′-hydroxy[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carboxylate CAS 40501-40-4 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.

Methyl 2′-hydroxy[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carboxylate (CAS 40501-40-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H12O3 and a molecular weight of 228.24 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Methyl 2′-hydroxy[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carboxylate (C14H12O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures Methyl 2′-hydroxy[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carboxylate 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.
