Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl (2S,5S)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-5-methylpyrrolidine-1-carboxylate CAS 441716-79-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

tert-Butyl (2S,5S)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-5-methylpyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (CAS 441716-79-6), molecular formula C11H21NO3 and molecular weight 215.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, tert-Butyl (2S,5S)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-5-methylpyrrolidine-1-carboxylate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 215.29 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), tert-Butyl (2S,5S)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-5-methylpyrrolidine-1-carboxylate 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.
