Chemical Structure
Description
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 4-(Benzyloxy)-2-methoxyphenol is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 230.26 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).
4-(Benzyloxy)-2-methoxyphenol (CAS 72187-11-2), molecular formula C14H14O3 and molecular weight 230.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
