Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 196.63 g/mol gives (S)-2-amino-4-guanidinobutanoic acid hydrochloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
(S)-2-amino-4-guanidinobutanoic acid hydrochloride (CAS 1483-00-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H12N4O2HCl and a molecular weight of 196.63 g/mol.
(S)-2-amino-4-guanidinobutanoic acid hydrochloride (C5H12N4O2HCl) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine 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. 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.
CATO manufactures (S)-2-amino-4-guanidinobutanoic acid hydrochloride 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.
