Chemical Structure

4-(M-tolyl)but-3-en-2-one CAS 95416-57-2 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 4-(M-tolyl)but-3-en-2-one.

CATO supplies 4-(M-tolyl)but-3-en-2-one (CAS 95416-57-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H12O, MW 160.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C11H12O, 4-(M-tolyl)but-3-en-2-one contains 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 160.21 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
