Chemical Structure

5-(Hydroxymethyl)pyrimidine-2-carbonitrile CAS 1956366-36-1 chemical structure

Description

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

5-(Hydroxymethyl)pyrimidine-2-carbonitrile (CAS 1956366-36-1), molecular formula C6H5N3O and molecular weight 135.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-(Hydroxymethyl)pyrimidine-2-carbonitrile (C6H5N3O) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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).

CATO manufactures 5-(Hydroxymethyl)pyrimidine-2-carbonitrile 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.
