Chemical Structure

(+/-)-Citramalicacidsodiumsalt CAS 102601-31-0 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies (+/-)-Citramalicacidsodiumsalt (CAS 102601-31-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H6O5Na, MW 169.09 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, (+/-)-Citramalicacidsodiumsalt is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 169.09 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), (+/-)-Citramalicacidsodiumsalt meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
