The molecular framework of Dimethyl Fumarate USP Related Compound A (C5H6O4) 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).
Dimethyl Fumarate USP Related Compound A (CAS 2756-87-8) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C5H6O4 and a molecular weight of 130.10 g/mol.
