Chemical Structure

L-Leucine-15N CAS 59935-31-8 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, L-Leucine-15N is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 132.17 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.

CATO supplies L-Leucine-15N (CAS 59935-31-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H13[15N]O2, MW 132.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), L-Leucine-15N 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.
