Chemical Structure

(R)-4-Aminopentanoic acid CAS 5937-83-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures (R)-4-Aminopentanoic 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.

CATO supplies (R)-4-Aminopentanoic acid (CAS 5937-83-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H11NO2, MW 117.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (R)-4-Aminopentanoic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 117.15 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.

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