Chemical Structure

(R)-3-methylhexanedioic acid CAS 623-82-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (R)-3-methylhexanedioic acid 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.

(R)-3-methylhexanedioic acid (CAS 623-82-5), molecular formula C7H12O4 and molecular weight 160.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (R)-3-methylhexanedioic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 160.17 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.

CATO manufactures (R)-3-methylhexanedioic acid 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.
