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.
Ethyl 2-ethyl-3-oxo-4-phenylbutanoate (CAS 171855-61-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H18O3 and a molecular weight of 234.29 g/mol.
The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-ethyl-3-oxo-4-phenylbutanoate (C14H18O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
CATO manufactures Ethyl 2-ethyl-3-oxo-4-phenylbutanoate 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.
