Chemical Structure
Description
Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 145.16 g/mol gives 6-Amino-6-oxohexanoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 6-Amino-6-oxohexanoic acid (CAS 334-25-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H11NO3, MW 145.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 6-Amino-6-oxohexanoic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 145.16 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.
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.
