Chemical Structure

2-Amino-2-(pyridin-4-yl)acetic acid CAS 53339-65-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Amino-2-(pyridin-4-yl)acetic acid (CAS 53339-65-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H8N2O2HCl, MW 188.61 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Amino-2-(pyridin-4-yl)acetic acid (C7H8N2O2HCl) is characterized by an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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), 2-Amino-2-(pyridin-4-yl)acetic acid 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.
