Chemical Structure

3-Chloro-4,5-dimethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole CAS 56616-85-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

3-Chloro-4,5-dimethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (CAS 56616-85-4), molecular formula C4H6ClN3 and molecular weight 131.56 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-Chloro-4,5-dimethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (C4H6ClN3) is characterized by a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Chloro-4,5-dimethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole 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.
