Tris-(2-Ethylhexyl)Phosphate CAS 78-42-2 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.

Tris-(2-Ethylhexyl)Phosphate (CAS 78-42-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C24H51O4P and a molecular weight of 434.63 g/mol.

Tris-(2-Ethylhexyl)Phosphate (C24H51O4P) contains a phosphate ester group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tris-(2-Ethylhexyl)Phosphate 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.
