Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 190.13 g/mol gives Sodium 2-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Sodium 2-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate (CAS 69322-01-6), molecular formula C8H7O4Na and molecular weight 190.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Sodium 2-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate (C8H7O4Na) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Sodium 2-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
