Chemical Structure

Rac-Pinocembrin CAS 68745-38-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Rac-Pinocembrin is closely related to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Rac-Pinocembrin (CAS 68745-38-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H12O4 and a molecular weight of 256.25 g/mol.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Rac-Pinocembrin is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 256.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures Rac-Pinocembrin 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.
