Chemical Structure

Methyl β-neuraminic acid methyl ester CAS 56070-37-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 295.29 g/mol gives Methyl β-neuraminic acid methyl ester distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Methyl β-neuraminic acid methyl ester (CAS 56070-37-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H21NO8 and a molecular weight of 295.29 g/mol.

Methyl β-neuraminic acid methyl ester (C11H21NO8) 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 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 Methyl β-neuraminic acid methyl ester 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.
