Chemical Structure

(Z)-2-Benzylidenesuccinic acid CAS 65756-81-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (Z)-2-Benzylidenesuccinic acid 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.

(Z)-2-Benzylidenesuccinic acid (CAS 65756-81-2), molecular formula C11H10O4 and molecular weight 206.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of (Z)-2-Benzylidenesuccinic acid (C11H10O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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.

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

CATO manufactures (Z)-2-Benzylidenesuccinic acid 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.
