Chemical Structure

Glycine zinc salt monohydrate CAS 16800-66-1 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 Glycine zinc salt monohydrate.

Glycine zinc salt monohydrate (CAS 16800-66-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H8N2O4ZnH2O and a molecular weight of 231.51 g/mol.

Glycine zinc salt monohydrate (C4H8N2O4ZnH2O) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

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.
