Chemical Structure

(E)-3-(3-Methoxyphenyl)acrylaldehyde CAS 56578-36-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies (E)-3-(3-Methoxyphenyl)acrylaldehyde (CAS 56578-36-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H10O2, MW 162.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (E)-3-(3-Methoxyphenyl)acrylaldehyde (C10H10O2) 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.
