Description
3-Hydroxypentanoic acid is a short-chain hydroxy carboxylic acid used in organic synthesis, metabolic research and specialty biochemical applications. It is registered under CAS number 10237-77-1 with the empirical formula C₅H₁₀O₃ and a molar mass of 118,13 g/mol. The material has a density of 1,14 g/cm³, supporting accurate mass-to-volume calculations in formulation and analytical work. Available in a 25 mg pack size, this intermediate is suited to small-scale synthesis, reference preparation and pathway studies involving hydroxy fatty acid analogues. 3-Hydroxypentanoic acid from manufacturer Carl ROTH provides a defined chemical identity for laboratories developing chiral building blocks, polymer precursors or metabolic probes. Its compact five-carbon backbone and hydroxyl functionality enable selective derivatisation and incorporation into more complex molecular architectures. The product is intended for professional use in research and development environments by trained personnel handling fine organic chemicals and biochemical reagents.

Questions about 3-Hydroxypentanoic acid, 25 mg
What is this article?
3-Hydroxypentanoic acid, 25 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Produits chimiques de laboratoire et industriels.
A building block is an organic molecule bought to become part of a larger one. The structure, the CAS number and the purity decide it. A 95 percent reagent and a 99.9 percent reagent of the same name leave different impurities in the product. The functional groups are the reason it was chosen.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
