Chemical Structure

2,4-Dichloro-6-ethylamino-s-triazine CAS 3440-19-5 chemical structure

Description

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.

2,4-Dichloro-6-ethylamino-s-triazine (CAS 3440-19-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H6Cl2N4 and a molecular weight of 193.03 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2,4-Dichloro-6-ethylamino-s-triazine (C5H6Cl2N4) is characterized by a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. 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 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).

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.
