Chemical Structure

2,6-Diaminopyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid CAS 16490-14-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,6-Diaminopyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2,6-Diaminopyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 16490-14-5), molecular formula C5H6N4O2 and molecular weight 154.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2,6-Diaminopyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid (C5H6N4O2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

CATO manufactures 2,6-Diaminopyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
