Chemical Structure

Diacetylcysteine CAS 5416-02-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Diacetylcysteine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Diacetylcysteine (CAS 5416-02-4), molecular formula C35H45N5O9S and molecular weight 711.82 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Diacetylcysteine (C35H45N5O9S) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 16.0, corresponding to approximately 16 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 711.82 g/mol, it falls into the high-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.

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), Diacetylcysteine 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.
