Chemical Structure

3,4-Dimethylpentanoic acid CAS 3302-06-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3,4-Dimethylpentanoic acid is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3,4-Dimethylpentanoic acid (CAS 3302-06-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H14O2 and a molecular weight of 130.18 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C7H14O2, 3,4-Dimethylpentanoic acid contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 130.18 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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), 3,4-Dimethylpentanoic acid 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.
