Sodium 2,4,6,8-tetraoxo-1,2,4,5,6,8-hexahydropyrimido[5,4-d]pyrimidine-3,7-diide (CAS 36926-29-1), molecular formula C6H2N4O4Na and molecular weight 217.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Sodium 2,4,6,8-tetraoxo-1,2,4,5,6,8-hexahydropyrimido[5,4-d]pyrimidine-3,7-diide (C6H2N4O4Na) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).
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.
CATO manufactures Sodium 2,4,6,8-tetraoxo-1,2,4,5,6,8-hexahydropyrimido[5,4-d]pyrimidine-3,7-diide under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
