About 1,2,4-Butanetriol trinitrate

1,2,4-Butanetriol trinitrate is an API impurity reference standard carrying the CAS registry number 6659-60-5. With the molecular formula C4H7N3O9, it has a molar mass of 241.11 g/mol. Systematically, it is named 1,4-dinitrooxybutan-2-yl nitrate. It is also known as 1,2,4-Butanetriol trinitrate (BTTN) or 1,2,4-Butanetriol, 1,2,4-trinitrate.

The product is provided as a solid. Reference materials should be stored sealed and away from light and moisture, as specified on the accompanying COA. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Danger”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

As a characterised impurity of the parent drug substance, it is used for analytical method development, method validation (AMV) and routine quality-control testing, and it supports ANDA and DMF regulatory filings. Buyers come mainly from pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

Vaqora Chemicals supplies 1,2,4-Butanetriol trinitrate in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs, each shipped with a Certificate of Analysis (COA), and exports worldwide.
