(3aR,4R,12R,12aR)-3a,4,12,12a-Tetrahydro-2,2-dimethyl-4,12-epoxy-5H,8H-1,3-dioxolo[4,5-e]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]oxazocin-8-one (CAS 3868-21-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H14N2O5 and a molecular weight of 266.25 g/mol.
(3aR,4R,12R,12aR)-3a,4,12,12a-Tetrahydro-2,2-dimethyl-4,12-epoxy-5H,8H-1,3-dioxolo[4,5-e]pyrimido[2,1-b][1,3]oxazocin-8-one (C12H14N2O5) 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.
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.
