Chemical Structure

2-Ethyl-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane CAS 4359-46-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Ethyl-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane.

CATO supplies 2-Ethyl-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane (CAS 4359-46-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H12O2, MW 116.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-Ethyl-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane (C6H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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.
