Chemical Structure

2,3,4-Trihydroxybutanoicacid CAS 10191-35-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 136.10 g/mol gives 2,3,4-Trihydroxybutanoicacid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2,3,4-Trihydroxybutanoicacid (CAS 10191-35-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H8O5, MW 136.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, 2,3,4-Trihydroxybutanoicacid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 136.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
