Chemical Structure

Tert-butyl 2-(2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)acetate CAS 497250-66-5 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tert-butyl 2-(2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)acetate 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.

Tert-butyl 2-(2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)acetate (CAS 497250-66-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H17NO3 and a molecular weight of 199.25 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Tert-butyl 2-(2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)acetate is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 199.25 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.

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.
