Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-3-oxo-2-(trifluoromethyl)pentanoate CAS 2138558-71-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ethyl 5-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-3-oxo-2-(trifluoromethyl)pentanoate (CAS 2138558-71-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H20F3NO5, MW 327.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Ethyl 5-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-3-oxo-2-(trifluoromethyl)pentanoate is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 327.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
