Chemical Structure

5-(Ethoxymethyl)-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinone CAS 5423-97-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-(Ethoxymethyl)-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinone is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 5-(Ethoxymethyl)-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinone (CAS 5423-97-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H12N2O2, MW 168.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 5-(Ethoxymethyl)-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinone (C8H12N2O2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 168.19 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(Ethoxymethyl)-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinone 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.
