Chemical Structure

Magnesiumbutyrate CAS 556-45-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Magnesiumbutyrate 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.

Magnesiumbutyrate (CAS 556-45-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H7O2Mg and a molecular weight of 111.40 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C4H7O2Mg, Magnesiumbutyrate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 111.40 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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.

CATO manufactures Magnesiumbutyrate 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.
