Chemical Structure

4-Cyclopropyl-3-oxo-butyric acid methyl ester CAS 251635-21-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 4-Cyclopropyl-3-oxo-butyric acid methyl ester 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.

4-Cyclopropyl-3-oxo-butyric acid methyl ester (CAS 251635-21-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H12O3 and a molecular weight of 156.18 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-Cyclopropyl-3-oxo-butyric acid methyl ester is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 156.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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