3-Oxo-3-(m-tolylamino)propanoic acid CAS 95262-00-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

3-Oxo-3-(m-tolylamino)propanoic acid (CAS 95262-00-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H11NO3 and a molecular weight of 193.20 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-Oxo-3-(m-tolylamino)propanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 193.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
