Chemical Structure

H-Gly-Gly-β-Ala-OH CAS 42538-53-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including H-Gly-Gly-β-Ala-OH.

H-Gly-Gly-β-Ala-OH (CAS 42538-53-4), molecular formula C7H13N3O4 and molecular weight 203.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of H-Gly-Gly-β-Ala-OH (C7H13N3O4) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), H-Gly-Gly-β-Ala-OH 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.
