Chemical Structure

2-Propionamidoacetic acid CAS 21709-90-0 chemical structure

Description

2-Propionamidoacetic acid (CAS 21709-90-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H9NO3 and a molecular weight of 131.13 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Propionamidoacetic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 131.13 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 2-Propionamidoacetic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
