What is Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate

Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate, also known as Ethyl 2-Methyl-3-oxobutanoate, Ethyl 2-acetylpropionate, or ethyl alpha-methylacetoacetate, is an organic chemical intermediate with the molecular formula C7H12O3 and a molecular weight of 144.17 g/mol. CAS No. 609-14-3 and EC No. 210-179-9 are commonly used to identify the compound in chemical procurement and technical documentation. At room temperature, it is a clear, colorless to light yellow liquid. Published reference data report a boiling point of about 185–187 °C, a melting point around -45 °C, a density close to 1.019 g/mL at 25 °C, and a refractive index around 1.418. It is essentially insoluble in water.

From a buyer’s perspective, the main value of Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate 609-14-3 is its role as a versatile beta-keto ester and building block for organic synthesis. Literature and chemical databases describe its use in reactions such as the Pechmann condensation, Japp-Klingemann reaction, and the preparation of substituted aromatic compounds, hydrazones and other organic intermediates. It has also been reported as a substrate in synthetic chemistry and in the preparation of more structurally complex molecules. For this reason, buyers may search for it using terms such as Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate for organic synthesis, 609-14-3 chemical intermediate, Ethyl 2-Methyl-3-oxobutanoate supplier, and beta-keto ester raw material.

Superior Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate Series | Reliable Quality & Sufficient Supply

For B2B chemical buyers, product specifications are only one part of the purchasing decision. The more practical questions are whether the supplier can maintain batch consistency, provide the required documents, respond quickly to specification questions, and coordinate production and shipment without unnecessary delays.

Zhishang bio operates as a chemical manufacturer and supplier with production bases in Zhangqiu Chemical Industry Park and Tai’an High-tech Chemical Industry Park. According to the company’s published information, the business has 8 production lines, 5–10 QC staff, a 1500m² lab and supports OEM services. Its product portfolio covers organic intermediates, inorganic chemicals, APIs, dyestuffs and pigments, fragrance and spice materials, and food additives.

For buyers sourcing Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate CAS 609-14-3, Zhishang bio can support the procurement process from specification confirmation through quality inspection, packaging and export documentation. The company states that every batch is tested before shipment and that it can provide documents such as COA, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading, Health Certificate and Certificate of Origin, depending on the product and destination requirements. Sample testing and customized packaging are also available.

Production, Inventory and Supply Advantages

The company maintains a multi-line production setup rather than relying on a single production line. This provides flexibility when arranging chemical raw material supply, production scheduling and export orders. For Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate, the actual available inventory, production quantity and batch availability should be confirmed with the sales team before order placement, because stock changes according to incoming orders and production schedules.

For buyers who need regular replenishment, Zhishang bio can discuss scheduled supply, reserved production and packaging requirements based on the customer’s purchasing plan. This is especially useful for laboratories, chemical manufacturers and distributors that need the same specification over multiple purchase cycles rather than a one-time shipment.

Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate Supply Plan & Delivery Schedule

A reliable Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate supplier should be able to explain what happens after a purchase inquiry. Our standard B2B workflow is designed to keep the process clear from specification review through shipment.

Inquiry → Specification Confirmation → COA/Sample Review → Order Confirmation → Stock Allocation or Production → QC Inspection → Packing → Shipment

For sample or small-volume orders, availability can normally be checked against current inventory. Larger Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate bulk orders may require production scheduling, particularly when the requested quantity exceeds available warehouse stock.

Parameter	Standard Order	Bulk Wholesale Order	Urgent Order
Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)	1 kg	Upon negotiation	1 kg
Supply Volume	Stable supply	Up to 50 tons per month	Permanent stock: 20‑30 tons
Lead Time	3‑7 working days	7‑20 working days	Shipment within 24‑48 hours
Payment Terms	T/T, L/C, Western Union	T/T, L/C	T/T preferred
Price Policy	Standard price	Support long‑term contracts & price lock	Confirmed according to stock availability
Service Features	For regular purchases	For long‑term & large‑volume purchases	Quick response & urgent delivery

Buyer Case: From Sample Evaluation to Regular Supply

A useful procurement model for Ethyl 2-Methylacetoacetate is to begin with a small evaluation quantity before moving to a larger purchase. The buyer first confirms the CAS number, molecular formula, required purity, packaging and analytical documentation. After reviewing the sample and COA, the purchasing team can move to a larger production or distribution order and establish a repeat delivery schedule.
a
This approach reduces the risk of changing specifications between the laboratory evaluation stage and commercial procurement. For Zhishang Chemical, the same process can be used for other organic intermediates and chemical raw materials, with product specifications, quality documents and logistics arrangements confirmed before shipment.
