Chemical Structure

3-(2-Methoxyethoxy)benzaldehyde CAS 73244-50-5 chemical structure

Description

3-(2-Methoxyethoxy)benzaldehyde (CAS 73244-50-5), molecular formula C10H12O3 and molecular weight 180.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-(2-Methoxyethoxy)benzaldehyde (C10H12O3) 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 3-(2-Methoxyethoxy)benzaldehyde under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
