Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-amino-2-(3-nitrophenyl)acetate CAS 687631-80-7 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Methyl 2-amino-2-(3-nitrophenyl)acetate (C9H10N2O4) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies Methyl 2-amino-2-(3-nitrophenyl)acetate (CAS 687631-80-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H10N2O4, MW 210.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
