Chemical Structure

(S)-2-Amino-4,4,4-trichlorobutanoic acid CAS 53518-91-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies (S)-2-Amino-4,4,4-trichlorobutanoic acid (CAS 53518-91-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H6Cl3NO2, MW 206.45 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

(S)-2-Amino-4,4,4-trichlorobutanoic acid (C4H6Cl3NO2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
