(S)-2-((S)-3-Amino-3-carboxypropanamido)succinic acid (CAS 60079-22-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H12N2O7 and a molecular weight of 248.19 g/mol.
(S)-2-((S)-3-Amino-3-carboxypropanamido)succinic acid (C8H12N2O7) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group. It is notably hygroscopic, 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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
