Chemical Structure

Gabapentin CAS 60142-96-3 chemical structure

Description

Gabapentin (CAS 60142-96-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H17NO2 and a molecular weight of 171.24 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Gabapentin is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 171.24 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Gabapentin 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.
