Chemical Structure

rac-(2R,3R)-1-ethyl-5-oxo-2-(pyridin-3-yl)pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid CAS 2031242-40-5 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of rac-(2R,3R)-1-ethyl-5-oxo-2-(pyridin-3-yl)pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid (C12H14N2O3) 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
