Description
Acetic acid ethyl ester (ethyl acetate) is a high-purity organic solvent supplied as ROTISOLV® HPLC grade with a minimum assay of 99,9 %. Identified by CAS 141-78-6 and empirical formula C₄H₈O₂, it has a molar mass of 88,11 g/mol and a density of 0,9003 g/cm³. The boiling point is 77,1 °C and the flash point is −4 °C, supporting controlled handling in analytical workflows. This is intended for liquid chromatography and related HPLC applications where low impurity levels and consistent solvent quality are essential. Physical data and composition align with the ROTISOLV® HPLC specification from manufacturer Carl ROTH, making the solvent suitable for environmental analysis, method development, and routine chromatographic separations. Ethyl acetate’s favourable solvating properties and defined purity profile support reproducible elution behaviour and sample preparation steps in laboratory liquid-chromatography setups.
This article is part of Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), in Solvents.

Questions about Acetic acid ethyl ester, ROTISOLV® HPLC min. 99.9 %, 2.5 l, glass
What is this article?
Acetic acid ethyl ester, ROTISOLV® HPLC min. 99.9 %, 2.5 l, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
An analytical-grade solvent, often marked p.a., has impurity limits tight enough for classical analysis and for preparing reagents. It is not automatically low enough in UV absorbance for HPLC, and it is not dry enough for a water-sensitive reaction. The grade is the purchase.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Solvents. The sub-category is Analytical grade solvents (p.a.). The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents, Dry & deuterated solvents (NMR, synthesis), Technical & synthesis grade solvents and Green & alternative solvents.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
