Chemical Structure

4-{[4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl]methoxy}benzaldehyde CAS 88015-49-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-{[4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl]methoxy}benzaldehyde is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-{[4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl]methoxy}benzaldehyde (CAS 88015-49-0), molecular formula C21H18O3 and molecular weight 318.37 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-{[4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl]methoxy}benzaldehyde (C21H18O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

CATO manufactures 4-{[4-(Benzyloxy)phenyl]methoxy}benzaldehyde 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.
