Chemical Structure
Description
Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 155.58 g/mol gives Methyl (S)-3-amino-2-hydroxypropanoate hydrochloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies Methyl (S)-3-amino-2-hydroxypropanoate hydrochloride (CAS 72185-81-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H9NO3HCl, MW 155.58 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Methyl (S)-3-amino-2-hydroxypropanoate hydrochloride is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 155.58 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.
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.
