Chemical Structure

Benzyl 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylate CAS 5466-78-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

Benzyl 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylate (CAS 5466-78-4), molecular formula C17H16O7 and molecular weight 332.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Benzyl 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylate (C17H16O7) is characterized by a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Benzyl 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)acrylate 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.
