Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 1,2-Bis(o-tolyloxy)ethane is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1,2-Bis(o-tolyloxy)ethane (CAS 53223-37-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H18O2 and a molecular weight of 242.31 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 1,2-Bis(o-tolyloxy)ethane (C16H18O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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 1,2-Bis(o-tolyloxy)ethane 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.
