Chemical Structure

Sarcosine hydrochloride CAS 637-96-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 125.55 g/mol gives Sarcosine hydrochloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Sarcosine hydrochloride (CAS 637-96-7), molecular formula C3H7NO2HCl and molecular weight 125.55 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C3H7NO2HCl, Sarcosine hydrochloride contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 125.55 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), Sarcosine 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.
