Chemical Structure

3-Hydroxypivalic Acid CAS 4835-90-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Hydroxypivalic 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-Hydroxypivalic Acid (CAS 4835-90-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H10O3 and a molecular weight of 118.13 g/mol.

3-Hydroxypivalic Acid (C5H10O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Hydroxypivalic 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.
