Chemical Structure

Trimethoprim lactate salt CAS 23256-42-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

Trimethoprim lactate salt (CAS 23256-42-0), molecular formula C14H18N4O3C3H6O3 and molecular weight 380.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Trimethoprim lactate salt is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 380.40 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
