Chemical Structure

2-Butoxy-2-oxoethyl butyl phthalate CAS 85-70-1 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-Butoxy-2-oxoethyl butyl phthalate (CAS 85-70-1), molecular formula C18H24O6 and molecular weight 336.38 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Butoxy-2-oxoethyl butyl phthalate (C18H24O6) contains a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO manufactures 2-Butoxy-2-oxoethyl butyl phthalate 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.
