Chemical Structure

(E)-Benzyl 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate CAS 61844-62-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies (E)-Benzyl 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate (CAS 61844-62-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H14O3, MW 254.28 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, (E)-Benzyl 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate (C16H14O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 254.28 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).

CATO manufactures (E)-Benzyl 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate 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.
