The occurrence of 3,6-bis(methylthio)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine is closely related to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 3,6-bis(methylthio)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (CAS 1672-34-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H6N4S2, MW 174.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 3,6-bis(methylthio)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (C4H6N4S2) is characterized by a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. 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.
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.
