Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanoate CAS 60946-75-0 chemical structure

Description

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

Ethyl 3-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanoate (CAS 60946-75-0), molecular formula C13H16O5 and molecular weight 252.26 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 3-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanoate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 252.26 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 3-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanoate 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.
