Chemical Structure

β-Alanine CAS 107-95-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including β-Alanine.

β-Alanine (CAS 107-95-9), molecular formula C3H7NO2 and molecular weight 89.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, β-Alanine (C3H7NO2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 89.09 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
