Chemical Structure

Cyclobutane-1,1,3,3-tetracarboxylic acid CAS 7371-69-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Cyclobutane-1,1,3,3-tetracarboxylic acid.

Cyclobutane-1,1,3,3-tetracarboxylic acid (CAS 7371-69-9), molecular formula C8H8O8 and molecular weight 232.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Cyclobutane-1,1,3,3-tetracarboxylic acid (C8H8O8) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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 Cyclobutane-1,1,3,3-tetracarboxylic 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.
