Chemical Structure

N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-N-methylglycine CAS 26294-19-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 133.15 g/mol gives N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-N-methylglycine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-N-methylglycine (CAS 26294-19-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H11NO3, MW 133.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-N-methylglycine (C5H11NO3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
