Chemical Structure

N-(2,5-Dioxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)-2-phenylacetamide CAS 17079-44-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 233.22 g/mol gives N-(2,5-Dioxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)-2-phenylacetamide distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

N-(2,5-Dioxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)-2-phenylacetamide (CAS 17079-44-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H11NO4 and a molecular weight of 233.22 g/mol.

N-(2,5-Dioxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl)-2-phenylacetamide (C12H11NO4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
