2-Methoxybutyric Acid CAS 56674-69-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Methoxybutyric 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.

2-Methoxybutyric Acid (CAS 56674-69-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H10O3 and a molecular weight of 118.13 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Methoxybutyric Acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 118.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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