Chemical Structure

5-Acetoacetyl-1,3-dimethyl-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-pyrimidinetrione CAS 51291-11-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 5-Acetoacetyl-1,3-dimethyl-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-pyrimidinetrione is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 240.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

CATO supplies 5-Acetoacetyl-1,3-dimethyl-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-pyrimidinetrione (CAS 51291-11-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H12N2O5, MW 240.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
