Chemical Structure

3-Amino-2-pyrazinecarbonitrile CAS 25911-65-3 chemical structure

Description

3-Amino-2-pyrazinecarbonitrile (C5H4N4) contains a nitrile group. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

3-Amino-2-pyrazinecarbonitrile (CAS 25911-65-3), molecular formula C5H4N4 and molecular weight 120.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
