Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate CAS 2106286-75-1 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate (CAS 2106286-75-1), molecular formula C10H9N3O2S and molecular weight 235.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Methyl 3-(pyridin-3-yl)-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 235.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

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.
