Chemical Structure

(D-Ala2)-Leu-Enkephalin CAS 64963-01-5 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), (D-Ala2)-Leu-Enkephalin 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.

(D-Ala2)-Leu-Enkephalin (CAS 64963-01-5), molecular formula C29H39N5O7 and molecular weight 569.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (D-Ala2)-Leu-Enkephalin is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 569.65 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.
