Chemical Structure

trans-2-(2-Methoxyphenyl)cyclopentanol CAS 63335-31-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of trans-2-(2-Methoxyphenyl)cyclopentanol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

trans-2-(2-Methoxyphenyl)cyclopentanol (CAS 63335-31-9), molecular formula C12H16O2 and molecular weight 192.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, trans-2-(2-Methoxyphenyl)cyclopentanol (C12H16O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 192.25 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
