Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4,6-Dihydroxy-5-nitropyrimidine.
CATO supplies 4,6-Dihydroxy-5-nitropyrimidine (CAS 2164-83-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H3N3O4, MW 157.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, 4,6-Dihydroxy-5-nitropyrimidine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 157.08 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4,6-Dihydroxy-5-nitropyrimidine meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
