Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-4,6-bis(methylthio)-1,3,5-triazine CAS 4407-40-3 chemical structure

Description

2-Chloro-4,6-bis(methylthio)-1,3,5-triazine (CAS 4407-40-3), molecular formula C5H6ClN3S2 and molecular weight 207.70 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Chloro-4,6-bis(methylthio)-1,3,5-triazine (C5H6ClN3S2) contains a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution. 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 207.70 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
