(2S)-2-amino-5-((5-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)amino)pentanoic acid CAS 149204-50-2 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 (2S)-2-amino-5-((5-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)amino)pentanoic acid.

(2S)-2-amino-5-((5-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)amino)pentanoic acid (CAS 149204-50-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H16N4O3 and a molecular weight of 228.25 g/mol.

(2S)-2-amino-5-((5-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)amino)pentanoic acid (C9H16N4O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
