Chemical Structure

Ethyl4-(4-chloro-1-oxobutyl)-a,a-dimethylbenzeneacetate CAS 76811-97-7 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl4-(4-chloro-1-oxobutyl)-a,a-dimethylbenzeneacetate (CAS 76811-97-7), molecular formula C16H21ClO3 and molecular weight 296.79 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Ethyl4-(4-chloro-1-oxobutyl)-a,a-dimethylbenzeneacetate (C16H21ClO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 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 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), Ethyl4-(4-chloro-1-oxobutyl)-a,a-dimethylbenzeneacetate 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.
