Ethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)-2-oxoacetate CAS 60473-28-1

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)-2-oxoacetate 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-(4-isobutylphenyl)-2-oxoacetate (CAS 60473-28-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H18O3 and a molecular weight of 234.29 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 2-(4-isobutylphenyl)-2-oxoacetate (C14H18O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring 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.

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.
