Chemical Structure

2-Amino-4-(methylthio)butanamide hydrochloride CAS 52811-68-4 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 2-Amino-4-(methylthio)butanamide hydrochloride (C5H12N2OSHCl) contains an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 184.68 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

2-Amino-4-(methylthio)butanamide hydrochloride (CAS 52811-68-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H12N2OSHCl and a molecular weight of 184.68 g/mol.

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.
