3-Methoxy-2-(methoxymethoxy)benzaldehyde (CAS 5779-96-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O4 and a molecular weight of 196.20 g/mol.
3-Methoxy-2-(methoxymethoxy)benzaldehyde (C10H12O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
