Chemical Structure

Guanidine Thiocyanate CAS 593-84-0 chemical structure

Description

Guanidine Thiocyanate (CAS 593-84-0), molecular formula CHNSCH5N3 and molecular weight 118.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Guanidine Thiocyanate (CHNSCH5N3) is characterized by a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. 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.

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), Guanidine Thiocyanate 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.
