Understanding the Chemical Properties of 4-Methylumbelliferone: A Guide for Lab Professionals

For laboratory professionals and researchers, a thorough understanding of a chemical compound's properties is the foundation of successful experimental design and execution. 4-Methylumbelliferone (CAS 90-33-5), also known as Hymecromone, is a compound whose chemical characteristics are key to its diverse applications, from fluorescent probes to enzyme inhibition studies.

Chemically, 4-Methylumbelliferone has the molecular formula C10H8O3 and a molecular weight of approximately 176.17 g/mol. It is typically supplied as a fine powder, often appearing as a white to off-white or slightly yellowish crystalline solid. Its purity is a critical parameter, with high-grade research chemicals usually exceeding 95% or even 98% purity, often verified by HPLC or NMR. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., a reputable manufacturer in China, ensures that their 4-Methylumbelliferone meets these stringent purity standards, making it reliable for sensitive applications.

Solubility is another vital property. 4-Methylumbelliferone is generally described as practically insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and DMSO. Understanding these solubility characteristics is essential for preparing appropriate stock solutions and reaction mixtures. When planning to buy 4-Methylumbelliferone for specific assays, consulting the supplier's documentation for precise solubility data is highly recommended.

The melting point of 4-Methylumbelliferone is typically in the range of 185-190°C, a specification that helps confirm its identity and purity. Researchers can leverage this data, along with other specifications provided by suppliers like NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., to ensure they are working with authentic and high-quality material. Familiarity with these chemical properties allows for more efficient and accurate use of this versatile compound in biochemical and analytical research.
