Methyl 2-(2-chloroacetamido)-3-cyclohexylpropanoate CAS 318949-36-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

Methyl 2-(2-chloroacetamido)-3-cyclohexylpropanoate (CAS 318949-36-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H20ClNO3 and a molecular weight of 261.75 g/mol.

Structurally, Methyl 2-(2-chloroacetamido)-3-cyclohexylpropanoate (C12H20ClNO3) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 261.75 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
