Chemical Structure

4-Methylpentanoic Acid-d12 CAS 116287-57-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Methylpentanoic Acid-d12 is closely related to deuterium isotope labeling, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-Methylpentanoic Acid-d12 (CAS 116287-57-1), molecular formula C6D12O2 and molecular weight 128.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-Methylpentanoic Acid-d12 (C6D12O2) contains deuterium isotope labeling, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

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.
