Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(3-iodophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate CAS 68332-33-2 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 3-(3-iodophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate (CAS 68332-33-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H11IO3 and a molecular weight of 318.11 g/mol.

Ethyl 3-(3-iodophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate (C11H11IO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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 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.

CATO manufactures Ethyl 3-(3-iodophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate 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.
