SR-9009 has an average molecular weight of 437.94 daltons and a monoisotopic mass of 437.1176 daltons, computed from the molecular formula C20H24ClN3O4S. Identity is confirmed by matching the measured mass against a certified reference standard, and purity is reported separately by reversed-phase chromatography at the compound's own ultraviolet maximum rather than at the 214 nm used for peptides. Neither figure states which enantiomer is present, which is a third determination on a chiral stationary phase.

Usable response for this compound is in positive mode. The other ion is given because it is the one a wrongly configured method looks for.
A molecule of this size does not produce the multiply charged envelope a peptide does. It produces one singly charged ion, and which polarity that ion appears in is decided by the functional groups rather than by convenience. A nitro or cyano aromatic responds in negative mode; a basic amine responds in positive.
That is why a screen acquired in a single polarity misses part of its own compound list, and why a non-detect from such a screen is not evidence that a substance is absent. The polarity used belongs on the certificate alongside the result.
| The nitro group reduces to the amine, 30 daltons lighter, under light and in an over-energetic ion source. Samples are handled under light protection and the source conditions are recorded, because otherwise degradation and instrument artefact are indistinguishable on the report. |
| The ethyl carbamate hydrolyses in aqueous and alcoholic media, so the sample preparation itself can create the impurity being measured. Preparation solvent and standing time belong on the certificate. |
| Chlorine gives an M plus 2 satellite, which is the quickest discriminator against the several nitrothiophene analogues sold under adjacent names. |
Every compound fails in its own way. A generic peptide method applied without regard to these specifics produces a number that looks like a result and is not one.
A PPAR delta agonist pair, two REV-ERB agonists and a growth hormone secretagogue. All are sold as SARMs and none binds the androgen receptor. The distinction is not pedantry: it is the reason a single method tuned for the aryl propanamides under-reports every compound in this group, and the reason a class screen has to be built from the chemistry rather than from the marketing category.
LC-MS identity against a certified reference standard, with source and polarity chosen per compound because this group spans a basic amine, two neutral thioethers and two nitro heterocycles. Purity by HPLC-UV at the compound's absorbance maximum. The nitro compounds are handled under light protection, because their reduction product is a different molecule at a different mass.
Where the delivered milligram figure matters rather than the percentage, assay against a certified reference standard gives content directly, and where no such standard exists quantitative NMR against a certified internal standard gives an absolute purity that needs no standard of the analyte at all.

What is the molecular weight of SR-9009?
The average molecular weight is 437.94 daltons and the monoisotopic mass is 437.1176 daltons, computed from the molecular formula C20H24ClN3O4S shown on this page. Both figures are calculated rather than transcribed, so they can be checked against the stated composition.
How is SR-9009 tested for purity and identity?
LC-MS identity against a certified reference standard, with source and polarity chosen per compound because this group spans a basic amine, two neutral thioethers and two nitro heterocycles. Purity by HPLC-UV at the compound's absorbance maximum. The nitro compounds are handled under light protection, because their reduction product is a different molecule at a different mass. Purity is an area ratio measured at the compound's own ultraviolet maximum, and it describes the chromatographable fraction only. It says nothing about which enantiomer is present, because mirror images are not separated by an achiral column.
What goes wrong when SR-9009 is analysed?
The nitro group reduces to the amine, 30 daltons lighter, under light and in an over-energetic ion source. Samples are handled under light protection and the source conditions are recorded, because otherwise degradation and instrument artefact are indistinguishable on the report.
What does SR-9009 analysis cost at ANALYTON?
Small molecule analysis, specialist compound is priced at 377 US dollars, covering the determinations described on this page. Content, safety and elemental determinations are ordered alongside and are priced separately on the price list.
