Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-(decyloxy)benzoate CAS 62443-10-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 292.41 g/mol gives Methyl 4-(decyloxy)benzoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Methyl 4-(decyloxy)benzoate (CAS 62443-10-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H28O3, MW 292.41 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Methyl 4-(decyloxy)benzoate (C18H28O3) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 4-(decyloxy)benzoate 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.
