Description
Acetic acid n-butyl ester (n-butyl acetate) is a high-purity solvent offered as ROTIPURAN® with a minimum assay of 99,5 %, p.a. and ACS grade. It is registered under CAS number 123-86-4 and EG number 204-658-1, with empirical formula C₆H₁₂O₂, molar mass 116,16 g/mol and density 0,881 g/cm³. Key physical data include a flash point of 27 °C and a boiling point of 126,2 °C. Typical uses encompass extraction, chromatography sample preparation and general organic dissolution work within solvents-for-analysis workflows. This grade is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH for laboratories that specify p.a./ACS quality. The combination of documented purity, density and boiling range supports reproducible method transfer and solvent exchange steps. The one-litre glass bottle is practical for bench-scale solvent supply in analytical chemistry, quality control and research environments.

Questions about Acetic acid n-butyl ester, ROTIPURAN® min. 99,5 %, p.a., ACS, 1 l, glass
What is this article?
Acetic acid n-butyl ester, ROTIPURAN® min. 99,5 %, p.a., ACS, 1 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.
