Chemical Structure

3-(3-(Benzyloxy)phenyl)propanal CAS 75677-04-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 240.30 g/mol gives 3-(3-(Benzyloxy)phenyl)propanal distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-(3-(Benzyloxy)phenyl)propanal (CAS 75677-04-2), molecular formula C16H16O2 and molecular weight 240.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, 3-(3-(Benzyloxy)phenyl)propanal is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 240.30 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(3-(Benzyloxy)phenyl)propanal meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
