The occurrence of D-Glucosamine Hydrochloride is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
D-Glucosamine Hydrochloride (CAS 66-84-2), molecular formula C6H13NO5HCl and molecular weight 215.63 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, chlorine substitution, D-Glucosamine Hydrochloride is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 215.63 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
CATO manufactures D-Glucosamine Hydrochloride under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
