Chemical Structure

3-Methylpyrazine-2(1H)-thione CAS 5271-25-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-Methylpyrazine-2(1H)-thione.

CATO supplies 3-Methylpyrazine-2(1H)-thione (CAS 5271-25-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H6N2S, MW 126.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 3-Methylpyrazine-2(1H)-thione (C5H6N2S) is characterized by a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. 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.

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), 3-Methylpyrazine-2(1H)-thione 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.
