Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of ethyl 2-chloropentanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies ethyl 2-chloropentanoate (CAS 118688-48-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H13ClO2, MW 164.63 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, ethyl 2-chloropentanoate (C7H13ClO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 164.63 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
