7-Methyl-8-(methylthio)-7H-purine CAS 55286-09-4 chemical structure

Description

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

7-Methyl-8-(methylthio)-7H-purine (CAS 55286-09-4), molecular formula C7H8N4S and molecular weight 180.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C7H8N4S, 7-Methyl-8-(methylthio)-7H-purine contains a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 180.23 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
