Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-Ethyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-2,4-dione.
3-Ethyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-2,4-dione (CAS 26675-95-6), molecular formula C7H7F3N2O2 and molecular weight 208.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
3-Ethyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-2,4-dione (C7H7F3N2O2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Ethyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-2,4-dione 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.
