3,4-Hexanedione CAS 4437-51-8 chemical structure

Description

3,4-Hexanedione (CAS 4437-51-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H10O2 and a molecular weight of 114.14 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3,4-Hexanedione (C6H10O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

CATO manufactures 3,4-Hexanedione 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.
