Chemical Structure

Ethyl (3r)-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate CAS 72656-47-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl (3r)-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate 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.

CATO supplies Ethyl (3r)-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate (CAS 72656-47-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H14O3, MW 194.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Ethyl (3r)-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate (C11H14O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
