Chemical Structure

4-Ethoxy-3,4-dioxobutanoic acid CAS 7597-72-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 4-Ethoxy-3,4-dioxobutanoic 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.

CATO supplies 4-Ethoxy-3,4-dioxobutanoic acid (CAS 7597-72-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H8O5, MW 160.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 4-Ethoxy-3,4-dioxobutanoic acid (C6H8O5) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 160.12 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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