Chemical Structure

Ethyl (4-formylphenoxy)acetate CAS 51264-69-8 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Ethyl (4-formylphenoxy)acetate (C11H12O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 208.21 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.

Ethyl (4-formylphenoxy)acetate (CAS 51264-69-8), molecular formula C11H12O4 and molecular weight 208.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
