Chemical Structure

(S)-Chloromethyl 5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxylate CAS 132166-79-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (S)-Chloromethyl 5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxylate.

CATO supplies (S)-Chloromethyl 5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxylate (CAS 132166-79-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H8ClNO3, MW 177.59 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C6H8ClNO3, (S)-Chloromethyl 5-oxopyrrolidine-2-carboxylate contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 177.59 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
