Chemical Structure

Calcium 3-Methyl-2-oxobutyrate CAS 51828-94-5 chemical structure

Description

Calcium 3-Methyl-2-oxobutyrate (CAS 51828-94-5), molecular formula C5H7O3Ca and molecular weight 155.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Calcium 3-Methyl-2-oxobutyrate (C5H7O3Ca) 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.

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.
