(R)-2-((tert-Butoxycarbonyl)amino)pent-4-enoic acid (CAS 170899-08-8), molecular formula C10H17NO4 and molecular weight 215.25 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, (R)-2-((tert-Butoxycarbonyl)amino)pent-4-enoic acid is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 215.25 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).
CATO manufactures (R)-2-((tert-Butoxycarbonyl)amino)pent-4-enoic acid 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.
