Chemical Structure

Muramic Acid CAS 1114-41-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 251.24 g/mol gives Muramic Acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Muramic Acid (CAS 1114-41-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H17NO7 and a molecular weight of 251.24 g/mol.

Muramic Acid (C9H17NO7) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
