Chemical Structure

2,3-Dimethyl-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)propiophenone CAS 898769-97-6 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 2,3-Dimethyl-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)propiophenone.

CATO supplies 2,3-Dimethyl-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)propiophenone (CAS 898769-97-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H20O2, MW 268.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2,3-Dimethyl-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)propiophenone (C18H20O2) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 2,3-Dimethyl-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)propiophenone 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.
