Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of methyl 2-(4-formyl-2-methoxyphenoxy)propanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
methyl 2-(4-formyl-2-methoxyphenoxy)propanoate (CAS 700856-14-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H14O5 and a molecular weight of 238.24 g/mol.
The molecular framework of methyl 2-(4-formyl-2-methoxyphenoxy)propanoate (C12H14O5) 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 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), methyl 2-(4-formyl-2-methoxyphenoxy)propanoate 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.
