Description
Tetraethyl orthocarbonate is an orthocarbonate ester supplied at a minimum purity of 95 % for laboratory and biochemical work. It is identified by CAS number 78-09-1 and the empirical formula C₉H₂₀O₄, with a molar mass of 192,25 g/mol. The material shows a density of 0,948 g/cm³ and a boiling point of 159,5 °C, supporting controlled handling in synthesis and formulation workflows. This variant is Physical constants from the manufacturer data help laboratories plan dosing, solvent choice, and thermal conditions. Tetraethyl orthocarbonate from manufacturer Carl ROTH fits chemical and biochemical catalogues that need a clearly specified ester intermediate. The product is positioned for research and production support environments that rely on consistent identity data, including CAS designation, formula, molar mass, density, and boiling point, without extending beyond the stated specification set.

Questions about Tetraethyl orthocarbonate, min. 95 %, 250 g
What is this article?
Tetraethyl orthocarbonate, min. 95 %, 250 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Lab chemicals.
A building block is an organic molecule bought to become part of a larger one. The structure, the CAS number and the purity decide it. A 95 percent reagent and a 99.9 percent reagent of the same name leave different impurities in the product. The functional groups are the reason it was chosen.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
