Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(3-isopropoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanoate CAS 114590-68-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 3-(3-isopropoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 3-(3-isopropoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanoate (CAS 114590-68-0), molecular formula C14H18O4 and molecular weight 250.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Ethyl 3-(3-isopropoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanoate (C14H18O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

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.
