Chemical Structure

Diethyl 2,2'-(1,4-phenylenebis(oxy))diacetate CAS 5897-78-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Diethyl 2,2'-(1,4-phenylenebis(oxy))diacetate 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.

Diethyl 2,2'-(1,4-phenylenebis(oxy))diacetate (CAS 5897-78-9), molecular formula C14H18O6 and molecular weight 282.29 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, Diethyl 2,2'-(1,4-phenylenebis(oxy))diacetate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 282.29 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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