Chemical Structure

2-(n-Phenylacetamido)acetic acid CAS 579-98-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(n-Phenylacetamido)acetic acid.

2-(n-Phenylacetamido)acetic acid (CAS 579-98-6), molecular formula C10H11NO3 and molecular weight 193.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(n-Phenylacetamido)acetic acid (C10H11NO3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

CATO manufactures 2-(n-Phenylacetamido)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.
