Chemical Structure

1-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)pentan-1-one CAS 66053-97-2 chemical structure

Description

1-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)pentan-1-one (C13H18O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

1-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)pentan-1-one (CAS 66053-97-2), molecular formula C13H18O3 and molecular weight 222.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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), 1-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)pentan-1-one 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.
