Chemical Structure
Description
Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 271.79 g/mol gives Meprylcaine HCl distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Meprylcaine HCl (CAS 956-03-6), molecular formula C14H21NO2HCl and molecular weight 271.79 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C14H21NO2HCl, Meprylcaine HCl contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 271.79 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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 Meprylcaine HCl 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.
