Chemical Structure

6-Acetyl-7-hydroxy-2-methyl-8-propyl-4H-chromen-4-one CAS 96237-74-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 6-Acetyl-7-hydroxy-2-methyl-8-propyl-4H-chromen-4-one (C15H16O4) is characterized by a flavonoid 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 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).

6-Acetyl-7-hydroxy-2-methyl-8-propyl-4H-chromen-4-one (CAS 96237-74-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H16O4 and a molecular weight of 260.29 g/mol.

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.
