Chemical Structure

2-Methylpyrrole CAS 636-41-9 chemical structure

Description

2-Methylpyrrole (CAS 636-41-9), molecular formula C5H7N and molecular weight 81.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrile group, 2-Methylpyrrole is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 81.12 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.

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.
