The molecular framework of 2-Amino-3-methoxy-3-methylbutanoic acid (C6H13NO3) 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
2-Amino-3-methoxy-3-methylbutanoic acid (CAS 18801-86-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H13NO3 and a molecular weight of 147.17 g/mol.
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.
