Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-methyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylate CAS 15966-46-8 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies Ethyl 5-methyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylate (CAS 15966-46-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H12N4O4, MW 276.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C12H12N4O4, Ethyl 5-methyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylate contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 276.25 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
