Chemical Structure

6-Oxooctanoic Acid Ethyl Ester CAS 4233-58-3 chemical structure

Description

6-Oxooctanoic Acid Ethyl Ester (CAS 4233-58-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H18O3 and a molecular weight of 186.25 g/mol.

Structurally, 6-Oxooctanoic Acid Ethyl Ester (C10H18O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 186.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
