Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-[2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethylamino]acetic acid.
2-[2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethylamino]acetic acid (CAS 55682-22-9) is a certified pharmaceutical impurity reference standard with the molecular formula C6H15N3O2 and a molecular weight of 161.20 g/mol.
2-[2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethylamino]acetic acid (C6H15N3O2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.
CATO manufactures 2-[2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethylamino]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.
