Chemical Structure

Ethyl 1,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate CAS 3457-77-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

Ethyl 1,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate (CAS 3457-77-0), molecular formula C12H10O4 and molecular weight 218.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Ethyl 1,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate (C12H10O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 1,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2-carboxylate 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.
