Chemical Structure

4-(4-Ethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoyl chloride CAS 1429309-47-6 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

4-(4-Ethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoyl chloride (CAS 1429309-47-6), molecular formula C12H13ClO2 and molecular weight 224.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-(4-Ethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoyl chloride (C12H13ClO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 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 224.68 g/mol, it falls into the medium-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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(4-Ethylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoyl chloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
