Chemical Structure

(2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)carbamic acid CAS 87714-95-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)carbamic acid is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)carbamic acid (CAS 87714-95-2), molecular formula C5H9NO4 and molecular weight 147.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, (2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)carbamic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 147.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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 (2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)carbamic acid 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.
