The occurrence of 4-Methoxy-3-((3-methylbenzyl)oxy)benzaldehyde is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 4-Methoxy-3-((3-methylbenzyl)oxy)benzaldehyde (CAS 667412-91-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H16O3, MW 256.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 4-Methoxy-3-((3-methylbenzyl)oxy)benzaldehyde is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 256.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
