Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 308.28 g/mol gives 4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-xylopyranoside distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-xylopyranoside (CAS 6734-33-4), molecular formula C15H16O7 and molecular weight 308.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-xylopyranoside (C15H16O7) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 308.28 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
