Chemical Structure

L-Sepiapterin CAS 17094-01-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of L-Sepiapterin is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

L-Sepiapterin (CAS 17094-01-8), molecular formula C9H11N5O3 and molecular weight 237.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of L-Sepiapterin (C9H11N5O3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), L-Sepiapterin meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
