4-nitro-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid CAS 5930-93-8 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.

4-nitro-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 5930-93-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H4N2O4 and a molecular weight of 156.10 g/mol.

4-nitro-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid (C5H4N2O4) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
