Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,3-Diacetoxypropanoic acid.
CATO supplies 2,3-Diacetoxypropanoic acid (CAS 87844-87-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H10O6, MW 190.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, 2,3-Diacetoxypropanoic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 190.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
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.
CATO manufactures 2,3-Diacetoxypropanoic 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.
