2-(3-Methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-4-yl)acetic acid CAS 1091908-73-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(3-Methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-4-yl)acetic acid.

2-(3-Methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-4-yl)acetic acid (CAS 1091908-73-4), molecular formula C6H8N2O2S and molecular weight 172.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(3-Methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-4-yl)acetic acid (C6H8N2O2S) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

CATO manufactures 2-(3-Methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-4-yl)acetic acid 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.
