Chemical Structure

Geranylgeranyl Diphosphate(GGPP) Trisammonium Salt CAS 6699-20-3 chemical structure

Description

Geranylgeranyl Diphosphate(GGPP) Trisammonium Salt (CAS 6699-20-3), molecular formula C20H36O7P2 and molecular weight 450.44 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a phosphate ester group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Geranylgeranyl Diphosphate(GGPP) Trisammonium Salt is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 450.44 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

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.
