Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-Acetyl-4-chlorobenzoate CAS 174813-39-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 2-Acetyl-4-chlorobenzoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ethyl 2-Acetyl-4-chlorobenzoate (CAS 174813-39-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H11ClO3, MW 226.66 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-Acetyl-4-chlorobenzoate (C11H11ClO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 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.

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.

CATO manufactures Ethyl 2-Acetyl-4-chlorobenzoate 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.
