Chemical Structure

2-Amino-5-methylbenzene-1,4-disulfonic acid CAS 26585-57-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 267.28 g/mol gives 2-Amino-5-methylbenzene-1,4-disulfonic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Amino-5-methylbenzene-1,4-disulfonic acid (CAS 26585-57-9), molecular formula C7H9NO6S2 and molecular weight 267.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Amino-5-methylbenzene-1,4-disulfonic acid (C7H9NO6S2) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
