Chemical Structure

Ammonium hypophosphite CAS 7803-65-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ammonium hypophosphite is closely related to organophosphorus functionality in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ammonium hypophosphite (CAS 7803-65-8), molecular formula H2O2PH4N and molecular weight 83.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula H2O2PH4N, Ammonium hypophosphite contains organophosphorus functionality; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 83.03 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
