Chemical Structure

Methylisothiazole-5-carboxylate CAS 15901-66-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methylisothiazole-5-carboxylate is closely related to an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methylisothiazole-5-carboxylate (CAS 15901-66-3), molecular formula C5H5NO2S and molecular weight 143.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Methylisothiazole-5-carboxylate (C5H5NO2S) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methylisothiazole-5-carboxylate 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.
