Chemical Structure

Calcium 4-Methyl-2-oxovalerate CAS 51828-95-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Calcium 4-Methyl-2-oxovalerate 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.

CATO supplies Calcium 4-Methyl-2-oxovalerate (CAS 51828-95-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H9O3Ca, MW 169.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Calcium 4-Methyl-2-oxovalerate (C6H9O3Ca) 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.

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.

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.
