Chemical Structure

Bis(2-methoxyethyl) Phthalate CAS 117-82-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 282.29 g/mol gives Bis(2-methoxyethyl) Phthalate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Bis(2-methoxyethyl) Phthalate (CAS 117-82-8), molecular formula C14H18O6 and molecular weight 282.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Bis(2-methoxyethyl) Phthalate (C14H18O6) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 282.29 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.

CATO manufactures Bis(2-methoxyethyl) Phthalate 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.
