Chemical Structure

2-Ethyl-m-xylene CAS 2870-04-4 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an aromatic ring system, 2-Ethyl-m-xylene is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 134.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

2-Ethyl-m-xylene (CAS 2870-04-4), molecular formula C10H14 and molecular weight 134.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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 2-Ethyl-m-xylene 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.
