Chemical Structure

3-(4-Cyanophenyl)propionic Acid CAS 42287-94-5 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.

CATO supplies 3-(4-Cyanophenyl)propionic Acid (CAS 42287-94-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H9NO2, MW 175.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

3-(4-Cyanophenyl)propionic Acid (C10H9NO2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(4-Cyanophenyl)propionic Acid 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.
