Chemical Structure

Sodium 2-(5-mercapto-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)acetate CAS 113221-74-2 chemical structure

Description

Sodium 2-(5-mercapto-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)acetate (CAS 113221-74-2), molecular formula C3H3N4O2SNa and molecular weight 182.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Sodium 2-(5-mercapto-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)acetate (C3H3N4O2SNa) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

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.
