Application: | 2-Ethyl-2-hydroxybutyric acid was used as internal standard during quantification of medium-chain-length bacterial poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate) by gas chromatography. It was used as ligand to study the effect of anionic and cationic surfactants on kinetics of electron transfer reaction from organic sulfides to [CrV(ehba)2]- (ehba=2-ethyl-2-hydroxy butyric acid). |
General description: | 2-Ethyl-2-hydroxybutyric acid forms 99mTc complexes. |
