Chemical Structure

(S)-2,6-Diamino-2-methylhexanoic acid CAS 111656-41-8 chemical structure

Description

(S)-2,6-Diamino-2-methylhexanoic acid (C7H16N2O2) 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.

(S)-2,6-Diamino-2-methylhexanoic acid (CAS 111656-41-8), molecular formula C7H16N2O2 and molecular weight 160.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
