Chemical Structure

2-Ketoglutarate dimethyl ester CAS 13192-04-6 chemical structure

Description

2-Ketoglutarate dimethyl ester (CAS 13192-04-6), molecular formula C7H10O5 and molecular weight 174.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Ketoglutarate dimethyl ester (C7H10O5) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 174.15 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-Ketoglutarate dimethyl ester under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
