Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of (R)-2-[2-(tert-Butoxy)-2-oxoethyl]-4-methylpentanoic Acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies (R)-2-[2-(tert-Butoxy)-2-oxoethyl]-4-methylpentanoic Acid (CAS 112245-04-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H22O4, MW 230.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (R)-2-[2-(tert-Butoxy)-2-oxoethyl]-4-methylpentanoic Acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 230.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (R)-2-[2-(tert-Butoxy)-2-oxoethyl]-4-methylpentanoic Acid 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.
