The occurrence of (S)-4-Amino-4-oxo-2-((2-sulfoethyl)amino)butanoic acid is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies (S)-4-Amino-4-oxo-2-((2-sulfoethyl)amino)butanoic acid (CAS 116709-49-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H12N2O6S, MW 240.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group, (S)-4-Amino-4-oxo-2-((2-sulfoethyl)amino)butanoic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 240.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
