Chemical Structure

N-Methyl-N-nitroso-ethenamine CAS 4549-40-0 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 N-Methyl-N-nitroso-ethenamine.

N-Methyl-N-nitroso-ethenamine (CAS 4549-40-0), molecular formula C3H6N2O and molecular weight 86.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

N-Methyl-N-nitroso-ethenamine (C3H6N2O) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; 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.

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.

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.
