Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)acetate CAS 14062-22-7 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 2-(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)acetate (C14H20O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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 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).
