Chemical Structure

2-Propoxyethyl benzoate CAS 62254-53-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Propoxyethyl benzoate (CAS 62254-53-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H6O2C5H12O2, MW 226.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-Propoxyethyl benzoate (C7H6O2C5H12O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Propoxyethyl benzoate 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.
