Chemical Structure

1-(tert-Butyl) 3-ethyl 3-(hydroxymethyl)azetidine-1,3-dicarboxylate CAS 1078166-51-4 chemical structure

Description

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

1-(tert-Butyl) 3-ethyl 3-(hydroxymethyl)azetidine-1,3-dicarboxylate (CAS 1078166-51-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H21NO5 and a molecular weight of 259.30 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1-(tert-Butyl) 3-ethyl 3-(hydroxymethyl)azetidine-1,3-dicarboxylate (C12H21NO5) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
