Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-hydroxy-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylate CAS 4906-69-8 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2-hydroxy-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylate 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.

Methyl 2-hydroxy-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylate (CAS 4906-69-8), molecular formula C14H12O3 and molecular weight 228.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Methyl 2-hydroxy-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-carboxylate (C14H12O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
