Chemical Structure

rel-(2S,3R)-2-Amino-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoic acid CAS 7695-56-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies rel-(2S,3R)-2-Amino-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoic acid (CAS 7695-56-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H11NO3, MW 181.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of rel-(2S,3R)-2-Amino-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoic acid (C9H11NO3) 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.

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), rel-(2S,3R)-2-Amino-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoic 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.
