Chemical Structure

(S)-2-Aminomethyl butyric acid CAS 538368-15-9 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), (S)-2-Aminomethyl butyric 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.

(S)-2-Aminomethyl butyric acid (CAS 538368-15-9), molecular formula C5H11NO2 and molecular weight 117.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

(S)-2-Aminomethyl butyric acid (C5H11NO2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
