Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 220.29 g/mol gives (4-Methoxyphenyl)(thiophen-3-yl)methanol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
(4-Methoxyphenyl)(thiophen-3-yl)methanol (CAS 4834-74-6), molecular formula C12H12O2S and molecular weight 220.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of (4-Methoxyphenyl)(thiophen-3-yl)methanol (C12H12O2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, 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.
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.
