1,2-Bis(4-methoxyphenoxy)ethane (CAS 61165-99-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H18O4 and a molecular weight of 274.31 g/mol.
Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1,2-Bis(4-methoxyphenoxy)ethane is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 274.31 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures 1,2-Bis(4-methoxyphenoxy)ethane 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.
