Chemical Structure

2-(pentyloxy)acetic acid CAS 5416-03-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 572.70 g/mol gives 2-(pentyloxy)acetic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-(pentyloxy)acetic acid (CAS 5416-03-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C32H40N6O4, MW 572.70 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-(pentyloxy)acetic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 572.70 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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 2-(pentyloxy)acetic acid 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.
