The occurrence of 2-(Pyridin-2-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-6-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]sulfanyl}pyrimidine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-(Pyridin-2-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-6-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]sulfanyl}pyrimidine (CAS 338418-06-7), molecular formula C17H9F6N3S and molecular weight 401.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 2-(Pyridin-2-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-6-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]sulfanyl}pyrimidine (C17H9F6N3S) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 401.33 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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.
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.
