Chemical Structure

4-(tert-Bbutoxy)-2,2-dimethyl-4-oxobutanoic acid CAS 76904-24-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(tert-Bbutoxy)-2,2-dimethyl-4-oxobutanoic 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.

4-(tert-Bbutoxy)-2,2-dimethyl-4-oxobutanoic acid (CAS 76904-24-0), molecular formula C10H18O4 and molecular weight 202.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-(tert-Bbutoxy)-2,2-dimethyl-4-oxobutanoic acid (C10H18O4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 4-(tert-Bbutoxy)-2,2-dimethyl-4-oxobutanoic 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.
