Chemical Structure

3-(3-Nitrophenyl)propiolic acid CAS 4996-15-0 chemical structure

Description

3-(3-Nitrophenyl)propiolic acid (CAS 4996-15-0), molecular formula C9H5NO4 and molecular weight 191.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-(3-Nitrophenyl)propiolic acid (C9H5NO4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
