(S)-1-(4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)ethane-1,2-diol CAS 87171-17-3

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (S)-1-(4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)ethane-1,2-diol.

CATO supplies (S)-1-(4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)ethane-1,2-diol (CAS 87171-17-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H12O4, MW 184.19 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, (S)-1-(4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)ethane-1,2-diol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 184.19 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (S)-1-(4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)ethane-1,2-diol 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.
