4-[(4-Methylbenzyl)oxy]benzaldehyde CAS 66742-58-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-[(4-Methylbenzyl)oxy]benzaldehyde.

CATO supplies 4-[(4-Methylbenzyl)oxy]benzaldehyde (CAS 66742-58-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H14O2, MW 226.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C15H14O2, 4-[(4-Methylbenzyl)oxy]benzaldehyde contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 226.27 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures 4-[(4-Methylbenzyl)oxy]benzaldehyde 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.
