Chemical Structure
Description
Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 226.66 g/mol gives Ethyl 3-chloro-4-methylbenzoylformate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Ethyl 3-chloro-4-methylbenzoylformate (CAS 951888-06-5), molecular formula C11H11ClO3 and molecular weight 226.66 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Ethyl 3-chloro-4-methylbenzoylformate (C11H11ClO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures Ethyl 3-chloro-4-methylbenzoylformate 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.
