Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 4-Methyl-2,6-bis(methylthio)pyrimidine is closely related to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 4-Methyl-2,6-bis(methylthio)pyrimidine (CAS 6308-41-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H10N2S2, MW 186.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 4-Methyl-2,6-bis(methylthio)pyrimidine (C7H10N2S2) is characterized by a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system. 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. 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.
