Description
Isobutyric acid is a synthesis-grade carboxylic acid supplied at minimum 99 % purity, with CAS number 79-31-2 and empirical formula C₄H₈O₂. Key physical data include a molar mass of 88,11 g/mol, density of 0,948 g/cm³, boiling point of 156 °C, and flash point in the range 56 to 62 °C, supporting informed handling in organic preparation work. suits laboratory-scale synthesis, intermediate formation, and process development. Isobutyric acid from manufacturer Carl ROTH is used where a branched C₄ acid is required as a building block or reagent in preparative chemistry. Its defined assay and physical profile help maintain reproducibility across reaction screening and scale-up trials. Glass packaging supports secure storage and controlled dispensing on the bench. This grade is intended for synthesis applications in research and industrial laboratories that need a reliable isobutyric acid source with clear identity and concentration specifications.

Questions about Isobutyric acid, min. 99 %, for synthesis, 250 ml, glass
What is this article?
Isobutyric acid, min. 99 %, for synthesis, 250 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Acids, inside Acids & bases, in Lab chemicals.
An acid on this shelf is the substance itself, concentrated or as a stated solution: hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, acetic and the rest. Concentration, purity and the trace metals decide the use. A concentrated acid and a volumetric solution of the same name are different products, and both burn.
An acid donates a proton. A base accepts one. In the bottle, the practical differences are the concentration, the purity and the anion or cation that comes along. Concentrated mineral acids are a different article from a dilute volumetric solution. The water in the acid, and the trace metals, decide whether it can be used for analysis. Check the substance on PubChem and the classification on ECHA CLP. Transport is the UNECE dangerous-goods framework. The legal texts are the CLP Regulation and REACH.
