Chemical Structure

(E)-3-Phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-one CAS 53940-08-2 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, (E)-3-Phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-one (C14H11NO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 209.24 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

(E)-3-Phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-one (CAS 53940-08-2), molecular formula C14H11NO and molecular weight 209.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (E)-3-Phenyl-1-(pyridin-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
