Chemical Structure

(E)-3-(3-Chloro-4-methoxyphenyl)acrylic acid CAS 58236-76-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

(E)-3-(3-Chloro-4-methoxyphenyl)acrylic acid (CAS 58236-76-3), molecular formula C10H9ClO3 and molecular weight 212.63 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (E)-3-(3-Chloro-4-methoxyphenyl)acrylic acid (C10H9ClO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 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 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.
