Methyl 2-(7-hydroxy-8-methyl-2-oxo-2h-chromen-4-yl)acetate CAS 714206-31-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 248.23 g/mol gives Methyl 2-(7-hydroxy-8-methyl-2-oxo-2h-chromen-4-yl)acetate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Methyl 2-(7-hydroxy-8-methyl-2-oxo-2h-chromen-4-yl)acetate (CAS 714206-31-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H12O5, MW 248.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 2-(7-hydroxy-8-methyl-2-oxo-2h-chromen-4-yl)acetate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 248.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
