Chemical Structure

(E)-3-Methyl-4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one CAS 42968-14-9 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 (E)-3-Methyl-4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one.

(E)-3-Methyl-4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one (CAS 42968-14-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H12O and a molecular weight of 160.21 g/mol.

The molecular framework of (E)-3-Methyl-4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one (C11H12O) is characterized by 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (E)-3-Methyl-4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one 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.
