2-((4-Chloro-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)thio)acetonitrile CAS 56605-40-4 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-((4-Chloro-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)thio)acetonitrile.

2-((4-Chloro-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)thio)acetonitrile (CAS 56605-40-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H6ClN3S and a molecular weight of 199.66 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-((4-Chloro-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)thio)acetonitrile (C7H6ClN3S) contains a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 199.66 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
