(R)-2-amino-2-(2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid CAS 138751-03-8 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 (R)-2-amino-2-(2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid.

(R)-2-amino-2-(2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid (CAS 138751-03-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H8FNO2 and a molecular weight of 169.15 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, (R)-2-amino-2-(2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 169.15 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.
