Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(3-methoxyphenyl)propanoate CAS 7116-39-4 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 3-(3-methoxyphenyl)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.

CATO supplies Ethyl 3-(3-methoxyphenyl)propanoate (CAS 7116-39-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H16O3, MW 208.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 3-(3-methoxyphenyl)propanoate (C12H16O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 208.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
