4-Methoxy-7-methyl-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione (CAS 50919-86-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H10O3 and a molecular weight of 190.20 g/mol.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-Methoxy-7-methyl-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 190.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
CATO manufactures 4-Methoxy-7-methyl-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
