Chemical Structure

4-Cyclobutyl-3-oxo-butyric acid ethyl ester CAS 885280-12-6 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 4-Cyclobutyl-3-oxo-butyric acid ethyl ester.

4-Cyclobutyl-3-oxo-butyric acid ethyl ester (CAS 885280-12-6), molecular formula C10H16O3 and molecular weight 184.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-Cyclobutyl-3-oxo-butyric acid ethyl ester (C10H16O3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

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.
