Chemical Structure

5-Aminopentan-2-one CAS 3732-10-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 5-Aminopentan-2-one is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 101.15 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.

5-Aminopentan-2-one (CAS 3732-10-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H11NO and a molecular weight of 101.15 g/mol.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Aminopentan-2-one meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
