Chemical Structure

3-methanesulfonyl-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid CAS 5324-67-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

3-methanesulfonyl-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid (CAS 5324-67-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H12O4S and a molecular weight of 180.22 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-methanesulfonyl-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 180.22 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.
