2-(2-Oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)benzoic acid CAS 69139-25-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 2-(2-Oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)benzoic acid (CAS 69139-25-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H10O4, MW 266.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-(2-Oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)benzoic acid (C16H10O4) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 266.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.
