Chemical Structure

Ethyl (2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)carbamate CAS 59840-70-9 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Ethyl (2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)carbamate (C11H13NO3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 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).

Ethyl (2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)carbamate (CAS 59840-70-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H13NO3 and a molecular weight of 207.23 g/mol.

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-oxo-2-phenylethyl)carbamate 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.
