Chemical Structure

(S)-2-Aminosuccinamide CAS 16748-73-5 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (S)-2-Aminosuccinamide is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 131.13 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.

CATO supplies (S)-2-Aminosuccinamide (CAS 16748-73-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H9N3O2, MW 131.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
