Chemical Structure

1-(2,4-Xylyl)biguanide CAS 28510-45-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 1-(2,4-Xylyl)biguanide (CAS 28510-45-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H15N5, MW 205.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1-(2,4-Xylyl)biguanide (C10H15N5) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(2,4-Xylyl)biguanide 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.
