Chemical Structure

2-(Benzyloxy)-4-(methoxymethoxy)benzaldehyde CAS 441356-34-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 272.30 g/mol gives 2-(Benzyloxy)-4-(methoxymethoxy)benzaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(Benzyloxy)-4-(methoxymethoxy)benzaldehyde (CAS 441356-34-9) 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 2-(Benzyloxy)-4-(methoxymethoxy)benzaldehyde (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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
