Chemical Structure

2,3-Dioxosuccinic acid CAS 7580-59-8 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies 2,3-Dioxosuccinic acid (CAS 7580-59-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H2O6, MW 146.06 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2,3-Dioxosuccinic acid (C4H2O6) 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).

CATO manufactures 2,3-Dioxosuccinic 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.
