Chemical Structure

2-(3-Methyl-4-oxothiazolidin-2-ylidene)acetonitrile CAS 56196-65-7 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 2-(3-Methyl-4-oxothiazolidin-2-ylidene)acetonitrile.

2-(3-Methyl-4-oxothiazolidin-2-ylidene)acetonitrile (CAS 56196-65-7), molecular formula C6H6N2OS and molecular weight 154.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-(3-Methyl-4-oxothiazolidin-2-ylidene)acetonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 154.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), 2-(3-Methyl-4-oxothiazolidin-2-ylidene)acetonitrile 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.
