Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)butanoic acid.
4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)butanoic acid (CAS 70686-51-0), molecular formula C8H15NO2 and molecular weight 157.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)butanoic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 157.21 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.
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), 4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)butanoic acid 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.
