2'-Hydroxy-6'-methoxychalcone, min. 95 %, 50 mg

2'-Hydroxy-6'-methoxychalcone is a substituted chalcone biochemical provided at a minimum purity of 95 %, registered under CAS number 42079-68-5 with empirical formula C₁₆H₁₄O₃. The molar mass of 254,28 g/mol enables accurate dosing in synthetic, analytical, and bioactivity-oriented experiments. Chalcones of this type serve as versatile intermediates and reference structures in studies of flavonoid biosynthesis precursors, Michael-acceptor chemistry, and structure–activity exploration of hydroxylated and methoxylated aromatic enones. size matches the needs of method development, small-scale organic transformations, spectroscopic characterisation, and screening panels where controlled consumption of specialised reagents is preferred. Clear molecular identity and the stated assay support reproducible preparation of stock solutions and documentation in research reports. Sourced from manufacturer Carl ROTH, this compound fits laboratories working on natural-product analogues, medicinal-chemistry scaffolds, and polyphenol-related pathways. Investigators can apply it in comparative studies with related chalcones, in chromatographic standardisation, or as a building block toward more complex heterocyclic systems. Together, the defined CAS number, empirical formula, molar mass, and convenient unit quantity make it a practical addition to biochemical and fine-chemical collections focused on aromatic ketone research.
