Chemical Structure
Description
Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 192.21 g/mol gives Methyl 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Methyl 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylate (CAS 50415-68-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H12O3 and a molecular weight of 192.21 g/mol.
Methyl 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylate (C11H12O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, 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.
