Chemical Structure

methyl 4-methyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate CAS 40318-15-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of methyl 4-methyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

methyl 4-methyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (CAS 40318-15-8), molecular formula C7H9NO2 and molecular weight 139.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, methyl 4-methyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (C7H9NO2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 139.15 g/mol, it falls into the low-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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), methyl 4-methyl-1H-pyrrole-3-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.
