2-((4-Amino-3-cyano-2-oxopent-3-en-1-yl)thio)acetic acid CAS 885458-39-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 214.24 g/mol gives 2-((4-Amino-3-cyano-2-oxopent-3-en-1-yl)thio)acetic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-((4-Amino-3-cyano-2-oxopent-3-en-1-yl)thio)acetic acid (CAS 885458-39-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H10N2O3S, MW 214.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-((4-Amino-3-cyano-2-oxopent-3-en-1-yl)thio)acetic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 214.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
