Methyl 2,3-dimethoxy-4-nitrobenzoate (CAS 61203-56-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H11NO6 and a molecular weight of 241.20 g/mol.

Structurally, Methyl 2,3-dimethoxy-4-nitrobenzoate (C10H11NO6) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 241.20 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.
