Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-(aminooxy)acetate hydrochloride CAS 5940-07-8 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 Methyl 2-(aminooxy)acetate hydrochloride.

Methyl 2-(aminooxy)acetate hydrochloride (CAS 5940-07-8), molecular formula C3H7NO3HCl and molecular weight 141.55 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Methyl 2-(aminooxy)acetate hydrochloride (C3H7NO3HCl) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 141.55 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2-(aminooxy)acetate hydrochloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
