Chemical Structure

1-Methyl-3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine CAS 64608-66-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-Methyl-3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine.

1-Methyl-3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine (CAS 64608-66-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H25NOS and a molecular weight of 279.44 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1-Methyl-3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine (C16H25NOS) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

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.
