Chemical Structure

3-(4-Methanesulfonylphenoxy)propanoic acid CAS 868277-53-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 244.26 g/mol gives 3-(4-Methanesulfonylphenoxy)propanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-(4-Methanesulfonylphenoxy)propanoic acid (CAS 868277-53-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O5S and a molecular weight of 244.26 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 3-(4-Methanesulfonylphenoxy)propanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 244.26 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.

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.
