Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-((2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)ethyl)amino)-4-oxobutanoic acid.
4-((2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)ethyl)amino)-4-oxobutanoic acid (CAS 92256-33-2), molecular formula C14H16N2O3 and molecular weight 260.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 4-((2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)ethyl)amino)-4-oxobutanoic acid (C14H16N2O3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 260.29 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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), 4-((2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)ethyl)amino)-4-oxobutanoic 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.
