Chemical Structure

3-(Methoxycarbonyl)phenylacetic Acid CAS 52787-19-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-(Methoxycarbonyl)phenylacetic Acid.

3-(Methoxycarbonyl)phenylacetic Acid (CAS 52787-19-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H10O4 and a molecular weight of 194.18 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3-(Methoxycarbonyl)phenylacetic Acid (C10H10O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
