Chemical Structure
Description
As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 4-cyano-3-oxobutanoate 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.
Ethyl 4-cyano-3-oxobutanoate (CAS 1715-68-0), molecular formula C7H9NO3 and molecular weight 155.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, Ethyl 4-cyano-3-oxobutanoate (C7H9NO3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 155.15 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.
