Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl (R)-2-hydroxy-4-methylpentanoate CAS 19892-92-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 188.26 g/mol gives tert-Butyl (R)-2-hydroxy-4-methylpentanoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

tert-Butyl (R)-2-hydroxy-4-methylpentanoate (CAS 19892-92-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H20O3 and a molecular weight of 188.26 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, tert-Butyl (R)-2-hydroxy-4-methylpentanoate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 188.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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