Chemical Structure

Dimethyl 2-(2-oxopropyl)malonate CAS 24889-15-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Dimethyl 2-(2-oxopropyl)malonate.

Dimethyl 2-(2-oxopropyl)malonate (CAS 24889-15-4), molecular formula C8H12O5 and molecular weight 188.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Dimethyl 2-(2-oxopropyl)malonate (C8H12O5) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 188.18 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Dimethyl 2-(2-oxopropyl)malonate 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.
