Chemical Structure

4-Ethoxyphenethyl acetate CAS 22532-53-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Ethoxyphenethyl acetate 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 4-Ethoxyphenethyl acetate (CAS 22532-53-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H16O3, MW 208.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C12H16O3, 4-Ethoxyphenethyl acetate 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 208.25 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Ethoxyphenethyl acetate 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.
