Chemical Structure

Ethyl 4-ethyl-3-oxooctanoate CAS 83269-79-8 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 4-ethyl-3-oxooctanoate (C12H22O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies Ethyl 4-ethyl-3-oxooctanoate (CAS 83269-79-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H22O3, MW 214.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
