2-Hydroxy-3-Methylbutanoic Acid (CAS: 4026-18-0) is a α-hydroxylated butyric acid derivative used as a marker in chemical diagnosis of organic aciduria and other inborn errors. 2-Hydroxy-3-methylbutyric Acid is also us ed as a metabolomic biomarkers in preeclampsia.
Chiral resolution of 2-Hydroxy-3-Methylbutanoic Acid without derivatization has been studied by capillary electrophoresis using 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin.
2-Hydroxy-3-Methylbutanoic Acid is employed as internal standard for analysis of ethylene glycol (EG) and γ-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) in whole blood.
