Chemical Structure

N-Nitrosuccinimide CAS 5336-95-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of N-Nitrosuccinimide is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

N-Nitrosuccinimide (CAS 5336-95-8), molecular formula C4H4N2O4 and molecular weight 144.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

N-Nitrosuccinimide (C4H4N2O4) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

CATO manufactures N-Nitrosuccinimide under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
