Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-Hydroxypropanoate CAS 623-72-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 118.13 g/mol gives Ethyl 3-Hydroxypropanoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Ethyl 3-Hydroxypropanoate (CAS 623-72-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H10O3, MW 118.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl 3-Hydroxypropanoate 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.

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.
