Chemical Structure

ethyl chloro(diphenyl)acetate CAS 52460-86-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of ethyl chloro(diphenyl)acetate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

ethyl chloro(diphenyl)acetate (CAS 52460-86-3), molecular formula C16H15ClO2 and molecular weight 274.74 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C16H15ClO2, ethyl chloro(diphenyl)acetate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 274.74 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures ethyl chloro(diphenyl)acetate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
