Chemical Structure

1-(3-Hydroxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethanone CAS 53967-72-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 181.15 g/mol gives 1-(3-Hydroxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethanone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1-(3-Hydroxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethanone (CAS 53967-72-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H7NO4, MW 181.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-(3-Hydroxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethanone is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 181.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.

CATO manufactures 1-(3-Hydroxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethanone 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.
