Chemical Structure

Tert-butyl n-[1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentyl]carbamate CAS 168540-07-6 chemical structure

Description

Tert-butyl n-[1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentyl]carbamate (C11H21NO3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies Tert-butyl n-[1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentyl]carbamate (CAS 168540-07-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H21NO3, MW 215.29 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.
