4-Chloroacetoacetic Acid Ethyl Ester CAS 638-07-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Chloroacetoacetic Acid Ethyl Ester.

4-Chloroacetoacetic Acid Ethyl Ester (CAS 638-07-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H9ClO3 and a molecular weight of 164.59 g/mol.

4-Chloroacetoacetic Acid Ethyl Ester (C6H9ClO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

CATO manufactures 4-Chloroacetoacetic Acid Ethyl Ester 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.
