Description

CATO supplies 2-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-(methylthio)pentanoic acid (CAS 1492567-30-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H13NO3S, MW 179.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-(methylthio)pentanoic acid (C6H13NO3S) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 179.24 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
