Chemical Structure

(S)-Dimethyl 2-phenylsuccinate CAS 61548-76-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 222.24 g/mol gives (S)-Dimethyl 2-phenylsuccinate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies (S)-Dimethyl 2-phenylsuccinate (CAS 61548-76-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H14O4, MW 222.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C12H14O4, (S)-Dimethyl 2-phenylsuccinate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 222.24 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (S)-Dimethyl 2-phenylsuccinate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
