Chemical Structure

(2R,4S)-2,4,5-trihydroxypentanal CAS 3396-73-4 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 (2R,4S)-2,4,5-trihydroxypentanal (CAS 3396-73-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H10O4, MW 134.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of (2R,4S)-2,4,5-trihydroxypentanal (C5H10O4) 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.

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