Methyl 2,3-dioxo-3-phenylpropanoate CAS 86358-32-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Methyl 2,3-dioxo-3-phenylpropanoate.

Methyl 2,3-dioxo-3-phenylpropanoate (CAS 86358-32-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8O4 and a molecular weight of 192.17 g/mol.

Structurally, Methyl 2,3-dioxo-3-phenylpropanoate (C10H8O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 192.17 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

CATO manufactures Methyl 2,3-dioxo-3-phenylpropanoate 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.
