Ethyl 2-(1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-yl)acetate CAS 57932-07-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 2-(1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-yl)acetate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 2-(1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-yl)acetate (CAS 57932-07-7), molecular formula C13H14O3 and molecular weight 218.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Ethyl 2-(1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-yl)acetate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 218.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 2-(1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-yl)acetate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
