Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-(4-hexylphenyl)-5-oxopentanoate CAS 138247-14-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ethyl 5-(4-hexylphenyl)-5-oxopentanoate (CAS 138247-14-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C19H28O3, MW 304.42 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 5-(4-hexylphenyl)-5-oxopentanoate (C19H28O3) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 304.42 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
