Chemical Structure

Sodium (S)-2-hydroxybutanoate CAS 1629168-61-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Sodium (S)-2-hydroxybutanoate (CAS 1629168-61-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H7O3Na, MW 126.09 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Sodium (S)-2-hydroxybutanoate is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 126.09 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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 Sodium (S)-2-hydroxybutanoate 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.
