Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 279.38 g/mol gives Ethyl 4-methyl-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydrothiazole-5-carboxylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies Ethyl 4-methyl-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydrothiazole-5-carboxylate (CAS 3161-80-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H13NO2S2, MW 279.38 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl 4-methyl-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydrothiazole-5-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 279.38 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).
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), Ethyl 4-methyl-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydrothiazole-5-carboxylate 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.
