(S)-3-(1H-Imidazol-4-yl)-2-tetradecanamidopropanoic acid (CAS 16804-63-0), molecular formula C20H35N3O3 and molecular weight 365.51 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (S)-3-(1H-Imidazol-4-yl)-2-tetradecanamidopropanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 365.51 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
