Chemical Structure
Description
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.
Methyl 4-((2-methoxyphenoxy)methyl)benzoate (CAS 438472-60-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H16O4 and a molecular weight of 272.30 g/mol.
The molecular framework of Methyl 4-((2-methoxyphenoxy)methyl)benzoate (C16H16O4) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.
