Chemical Structure

2-Amino-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid CAS 74279-63-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Amino-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid (CAS 74279-63-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H13NO3, MW 195.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Amino-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid (C10H13NO3) 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 its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

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), 2-Amino-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic 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.
