Chemical Structure

1-(2-Hydroxypropyl)-5-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione CAS 62009-50-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(2-Hydroxypropyl)-5-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione 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.

1-(2-Hydroxypropyl)-5-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (CAS 62009-50-1), molecular formula C8H12N2O3 and molecular weight 184.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1-(2-Hydroxypropyl)-5-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (C8H12N2O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
