Chemical Structure

(E)-2-(2-Methoxy-4-(prop-1-en-1-yl)phenoxy)acetic acid CAS 7510-46-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (E)-2-(2-Methoxy-4-(prop-1-en-1-yl)phenoxy)acetic acid 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 (E)-2-(2-Methoxy-4-(prop-1-en-1-yl)phenoxy)acetic acid (CAS 7510-46-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H14O4, MW 222.24 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, (E)-2-(2-Methoxy-4-(prop-1-en-1-yl)phenoxy)acetic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
