Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-amino-4-cyanobutanoate CAS 82672-94-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 156.18 g/mol gives Ethyl 2-amino-4-cyanobutanoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Ethyl 2-amino-4-cyanobutanoate (CAS 82672-94-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H12N2O2 and a molecular weight of 156.18 g/mol.

Ethyl 2-amino-4-cyanobutanoate (C7H12N2O2) 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.

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.

CATO manufactures Ethyl 2-amino-4-cyanobutanoate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
