Chemical Structure

1-(Benzyloxy)-3-hydroxy-4-methylpyrrolidin-2-one CAS 132559-84-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(Benzyloxy)-3-hydroxy-4-methylpyrrolidin-2-one is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-(Benzyloxy)-3-hydroxy-4-methylpyrrolidin-2-one (CAS 132559-84-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H15NO3 and a molecular weight of 221.25 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1-(Benzyloxy)-3-hydroxy-4-methylpyrrolidin-2-one (C12H15NO3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(Benzyloxy)-3-hydroxy-4-methylpyrrolidin-2-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
