Chemical Structure

Butanoic acid CAS 73777-50-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 198.16 g/mol gives Butanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Butanoic acid (CAS 73777-50-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H12NO4PH3N, MW 198.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Butanoic acid (C5H12NO4PH3N) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a phosphate ester group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Butanoic 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.
