Chemical Structure

Ethyl 4-(4-iodophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate CAS 898777-39-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 4-(4-iodophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 4-(4-iodophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate (CAS 898777-39-4), molecular formula C12H13IO3 and molecular weight 332.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C12H13IO3, Ethyl 4-(4-iodophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 332.13 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
