Chemical Structure

N-Methyl-L-alanine Methyl Ester Hydrochloride CAS 20045-77-6 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 N-Methyl-L-alanine Methyl Ester Hydrochloride.

N-Methyl-L-alanine Methyl Ester Hydrochloride (CAS 20045-77-6), molecular formula C5H11NO2HCl and molecular weight 153.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, N-Methyl-L-alanine Methyl Ester Hydrochloride (C5H11NO2HCl) 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 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 153.61 g/mol, it falls into the medium-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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), N-Methyl-L-alanine Methyl Ester Hydrochloride 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.
