Tartaric Acid
CAS Number: 87-69-4 and 526-83-0
Molecular Formula: C4H6O6
Molecular Weight: 150.1
Tartaric Acid
Tartaric Acid USP NF Grade Specifications
C4H6O6 150.09
Butanedioic acid, 2,3-dihydroxy-; Butanedioic acid, 2,3-dihydroxy-, [R-(R*,R*)]-.
Tartaric acid; L -(+)-Tartaric acid CAS 526-83-0 and CAS 87-69-4
Tartaric Acid, dried over phosphorus pentoxide for 3 hours, contains not less than 99.7 percent and not more than 100.5 percent of C4H6O6.
Identification:
A: It responds to the tests for Tartrate.
B: When ignited, it gradually decomposes, emitting an odor resembling that of burning sugar
(distinction from citric acid).
Specific rotation: between +12.0 and +13.0 .
Test solution: 200 mg per mL, in water.
Loss on drying: Dry it over phosphorus pentoxide for 3 hours: it loses not more than 0.5% of its weight.
Residue on ignition: not more than 0.1%.
Limit of oxalate: Nearly neutralize 10 mL of a solution of it (1 in 10) with 6 N ammonium hydroxide, and add 10 mL of calcium sulfate TS: no turbidity is produced.
Sulfate: To 10 mL of a solution (1 in 100) add 3 drops of hydrochloric acid and 1 mL of barium chloride: no turbidity is produced.
Heavy metals: 0.001%.
Assay: Place about 2 g of Tartaric Acid, previously dried and accurately weighed, in a conical flask. Dissolve it in 40 mL of water, add PhPh TS, and titrate with 1 N sodium hydroxide VS. Each mL of 1 N sodium hydroxide is equivalent to 75.04 mg of C4H6O6.
