Chemical Structure

3-Hydroxy-2-methylpent-4-enoic acid CAS 906637-85-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Hydroxy-2-methylpent-4-enoic 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.

3-Hydroxy-2-methylpent-4-enoic acid (CAS 906637-85-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H10O3 and a molecular weight of 130.14 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3-Hydroxy-2-methylpent-4-enoic acid (C6H10O3) 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.
