Chemical Structure

4-Isopropoxy-4-oxobutanoic acid CAS 20279-38-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 4-Isopropoxy-4-oxobutanoic acid (CAS 20279-38-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H12O4, MW 160.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-Isopropoxy-4-oxobutanoic acid (C7H12O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

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