Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-hydroxy-2,2,3-trimethylbutanoate CAS 86425-96-9 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 Methyl 3-hydroxy-2,2,3-trimethylbutanoate.

CATO supplies Methyl 3-hydroxy-2,2,3-trimethylbutanoate (CAS 86425-96-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H16O3, MW 160.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Methyl 3-hydroxy-2,2,3-trimethylbutanoate (C8H16O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
