Ethyl 2-[4-(2-chloroethoxy)phenoxy]acetate CAS 97315-40-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Ethyl 2-[4-(2-chloroethoxy)phenoxy]acetate.

CATO supplies Ethyl 2-[4-(2-chloroethoxy)phenoxy]acetate (CAS 97315-40-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H15ClO4, MW 258.70 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Ethyl 2-[4-(2-chloroethoxy)phenoxy]acetate (C12H15ClO4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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 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 2-[4-(2-chloroethoxy)phenoxy]acetate 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.
