Chemical Structure

3-Methyl-1-Butanol CAS 123-51-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-Methyl-1-Butanol.

3-Methyl-1-Butanol (CAS 123-51-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H12O and a molecular weight of 88.15 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3-Methyl-1-Butanol (C5H12O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.

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), 3-Methyl-1-Butanol 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.
