Chemical Structure

1-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)-2-butanone CAS 884-06-0 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C12H16O3, 1-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)-2-butanone contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 208.25 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

1-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)-2-butanone (CAS 884-06-0), molecular formula C12H16O3 and molecular weight 208.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
