[R,(-)]-1-(2,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-propanone CAS 4842-48-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4842-48-2 [R,(-)]-1-(2,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-propanone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 272.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies 4842-48-2 [R,(-)]-1-(2,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-propanone (CAS 4842-48-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H16O4, MW 272.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
