Chemical Structure

rac a-Ethyl DOPA Hydrobromide CAS 1329833-85-3 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 rac a-Ethyl DOPA Hydrobromide.

CATO supplies rac a-Ethyl DOPA Hydrobromide (CAS 1329833-85-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H15NO4HBr, MW 306.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

rac a-Ethyl DOPA Hydrobromide (C11H15NO4HBr) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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), rac a-Ethyl DOPA Hydrobromide 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.
