Chemical Structure

Potassium (S)-2-aminosuccinate(1:x) CAS 14007-45-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Potassium (S)-2-aminosuccinate(1:x) (CAS 14007-45-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H5NO4K, MW 170.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, Potassium (S)-2-aminosuccinate(1:x) is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 170.19 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.

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.

CATO manufactures Potassium (S)-2-aminosuccinate(1:x) 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.
