Chemical Structure

Methyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-oxopropanoate CAS 13865-20-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-oxopropanoate 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.

Methyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-oxopropanoate (CAS 13865-20-8), molecular formula C6H10O3 and molecular weight 130.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Methyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-oxopropanoate is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 130.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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

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.
