608-40-2 Butanedioic acid,3-dimethyl-, (R*,S*)- Butanedioic acid,3-dimethyl-, [R-(R*,S*)]- NSC-400523 NSC400523 Succinic acid,3-dimethyl-, erythro-meso- Succinic acid,3-dimethyl-, meso- erythro-2,3-Dimethylsuccinic acid (CAS 608-40-2), molecular formula C6H10O4 and molecular weight 146.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C6H10O4, 608-40-2 Butanedioic acid,3-dimethyl-, (R*,S*)- Butanedioic acid,3-dimethyl-, [R-(R*,S*)]- NSC-400523 NSC400523 Succinic acid,3-dimethyl-, erythro-meso- Succinic acid,3-dimethyl-, meso- erythro-2,3-Dimethylsuccinic acid 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 146.14 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.
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.
