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 3,3-Dimethyl-2-oxopentanoic acid.
CATO supplies 3,3-Dimethyl-2-oxopentanoic acid (CAS 34906-91-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H12O3, MW 144.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3,3-Dimethyl-2-oxopentanoic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 144.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.
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), 3,3-Dimethyl-2-oxopentanoic 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.
