Chemical Structure

4-Octylphenethyl acetate CAS 162358-04-5 chemical structure

Description

4-Octylphenethyl acetate (CAS 162358-04-5), molecular formula C18H28O2 and molecular weight 276.41 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-Octylphenethyl acetate (C18H28O2) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

CATO manufactures 4-Octylphenethyl acetate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
