Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 271.31 g/mol gives Methyl 5-benzyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrazine-3-carboxylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
Methyl 5-benzyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrazine-3-carboxylate (CAS 1393575-68-2), molecular formula C15H17N3O2 and molecular weight 271.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Methyl 5-benzyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrazine-3-carboxylate (C15H17N3O2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
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.
