Chemical Structure

Cyclo(-Val-Gly) CAS 16944-60-8 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 Cyclo(-Val-Gly).

Cyclo(-Val-Gly) (CAS 16944-60-8), molecular formula C7H12N2O2 and molecular weight 156.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Cyclo(-Val-Gly) is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 156.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

CATO manufactures Cyclo(-Val-Gly) under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
