Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 360.42 g/mol gives 1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)butan-2-one distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)butan-2-one (CAS 53917-01-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C19H20O5S, MW 360.42 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a flavonoid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-(4-Methoxyphenyl)butan-2-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 360.42 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
