Chemical Structure

2-amino-4-oxopentanoic acid hydrochloride CAS 197237-27-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-amino-4-oxopentanoic acid hydrochloride.

2-amino-4-oxopentanoic acid hydrochloride (CAS 197237-27-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H9NO3HCl and a molecular weight of 167.59 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C5H9NO3HCl, 2-amino-4-oxopentanoic acid hydrochloride contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 167.59 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
