Chemical Structure

Ethyl 8-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-8-oxooctanoate CAS 898757-57-8 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 8-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-8-oxooctanoate (CAS 898757-57-8), molecular formula C18H26O4 and molecular weight 306.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Ethyl 8-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-8-oxooctanoate (C18H26O4) contains a steroid core, 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 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), Ethyl 8-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-8-oxooctanoate 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.
