Chemical Structure

n-(2-Chloroacetyl)acetamide CAS 17368-73-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 135.55 g/mol gives n-(2-Chloroacetyl)acetamide distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

n-(2-Chloroacetyl)acetamide (CAS 17368-73-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H6ClNO2 and a molecular weight of 135.55 g/mol.

Structurally, n-(2-Chloroacetyl)acetamide (C4H6ClNO2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 135.55 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

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.
