Chemical Structure

4-(Methylthio)-2-thioxo-3-(p-tolyl)-2,3-dihydrothiazole-5-carbonitrile CAS 478261-56-2 chemical structure

Description

4-(Methylthio)-2-thioxo-3-(p-tolyl)-2,3-dihydrothiazole-5-carbonitrile (CAS 478261-56-2), molecular formula C12H10N2S3 and molecular weight 278.42 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-(Methylthio)-2-thioxo-3-(p-tolyl)-2,3-dihydrothiazole-5-carbonitrile (C12H10N2S3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
