Chemical Structure

1-(2,2-diethoxyethoxy)-2-methoxybenzene CAS 161364-38-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(2,2-diethoxyethoxy)-2-methoxybenzene is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 1-(2,2-diethoxyethoxy)-2-methoxybenzene (CAS 161364-38-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H20O4, MW 240.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C13H20O4, 1-(2,2-diethoxyethoxy)-2-methoxybenzene contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 240.30 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
