Chemical Structure

Boc-a-methyl-L-4-fluorophenylalanine CAS 1217754-68-1 chemical structure

Description

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

Boc-a-methyl-L-4-fluorophenylalanine (CAS 1217754-68-1), molecular formula C15H20FNO4 and molecular weight 297.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Boc-a-methyl-L-4-fluorophenylalanine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 297.32 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.

CATO manufactures Boc-a-methyl-L-4-fluorophenylalanine under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
