Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 294.30 g/mol gives 3-(4-Methoxystyryl)benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 3-(4-Methoxystyryl)benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 63405-24-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H14O4, MW 294.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 3-(4-Methoxystyryl)benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid (C18H14O4) is characterized by a flavonoid 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 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.
