Chemical Structure

Pyrimidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid CAS 127527-24-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

Pyrimidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 127527-24-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H4N2O4 and a molecular weight of 168.11 g/mol.

Pyrimidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (C6H4N2O4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Pyrimidine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
