Chemical Structure

Sodium 3,4-dicarboxy-3-hydroxybutanoate CAS 18996-35-5 chemical structure

Description

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

Sodium 3,4-dicarboxy-3-hydroxybutanoate (CAS 18996-35-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H7O7Na and a molecular weight of 214.11 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Sodium 3,4-dicarboxy-3-hydroxybutanoate (C6H7O7Na) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure. 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. 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).

CATO manufactures Sodium 3,4-dicarboxy-3-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.
