Chemical Structure

ethyl 2-hexyl-4,6-dihydroxybenzoate CAS 34993-70-9 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 2-hexyl-4,6-dihydroxybenzoate (CAS 34993-70-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H22O4 and a molecular weight of 266.33 g/mol.

ethyl 2-hexyl-4,6-dihydroxybenzoate (C15H22O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), ethyl 2-hexyl-4,6-dihydroxybenzoate 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.
