Chemical Structure
Description
Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 207.23 g/mol gives N-Acetyl-L-phenylalanine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
N-Acetyl-L-phenylalanine (CAS 2018-61-3), molecular formula C11H13NO3 and molecular weight 207.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, N-Acetyl-L-phenylalanine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 207.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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), N-Acetyl-L-phenylalanine 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.
