Chemical Structure

2-(4-Phenylbutyl)malonic acid CAS 97025-01-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-(4-Phenylbutyl)malonic acid 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.

2-(4-Phenylbutyl)malonic acid (CAS 97025-01-9), molecular formula C13H16O4 and molecular weight 236.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C13H16O4, 2-(4-Phenylbutyl)malonic acid 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 236.26 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
