Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-methoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate CAS 16425-82-4 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Ethyl 5-methoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 234.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies Ethyl 5-methoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate (CAS 16425-82-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H14O4, MW 234.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 5-methoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate 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.
