Chemical Structure

2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)propanoic acid CAS 753489-91-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)propanoic acid is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)propanoic acid (CAS 753489-91-7), molecular formula C6H12N2O2 and molecular weight 144.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)propanoic acid (C6H12N2O2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)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.
