Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzoate CAS 884-35-5 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 4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzoate.

Methyl 4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzoate (CAS 884-35-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O5 and a molecular weight of 212.20 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Methyl 4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzoate (C10H12O5) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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 Methyl 4-Hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzoate 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.
