Chemical Structure

Xanthosine Dihydrate CAS 5968-90-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Xanthosine Dihydrate is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Xanthosine Dihydrate (CAS 5968-90-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H12N4O6H2O, MW 302.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Xanthosine Dihydrate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 302.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), Xanthosine Dihydrate 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.
