2-(Chloromethyl)-5-(methylsulfanyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (CAS 3914-48-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H5ClN2S2 and a molecular weight of 180.68 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 2-(Chloromethyl)-5-(methylsulfanyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (C4H5ClN2S2) is characterized by a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, 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.
