Chemical Structure

3,5-Dimercaptopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid CAS 61830-00-0 chemical structure

Description

3,5-Dimercaptopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 61830-00-0), molecular formula C7H5NO4S2 and molecular weight 231.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3,5-Dimercaptopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (C7H5NO4S2) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,5-Dimercaptopyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid 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.
