The occurrence of Ethyl 2-chloro-2-ethoxyacetate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies Ethyl 2-chloro-2-ethoxyacetate (CAS 34006-60-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H11ClO3, MW 166.60 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Ethyl 2-chloro-2-ethoxyacetate (C6H11ClO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
