Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-Formyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate CAS 40611-79-8 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Methyl 4-Formyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate (C7H7NO3) 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Methyl 4-Formyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate (CAS 40611-79-8), molecular formula C7H7NO3 and molecular weight 153.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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 Methyl 4-Formyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate 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.
