(R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(4-nitrophenyl)acetic acid CAS 77977-73-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(4-nitrophenyl)acetic acid.

CATO supplies (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(4-nitrophenyl)acetic acid (CAS 77977-73-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7F5NS, MW 225.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, (R)-2-Hydroxy-2-(4-nitrophenyl)acetic acid (C7F5NS) contains a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 225.14 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
