Pyrrolidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid CAS 72000-65-8 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

Pyrrolidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 72000-65-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H9NO4 and a molecular weight of 159.14 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Pyrrolidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (C6H9NO4) 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
