Chemical Structure

4-Mercaptopyridin-2(1H)-one CAS 65871-80-9 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 4-Mercaptopyridin-2(1H)-one.

4-Mercaptopyridin-2(1H)-one (CAS 65871-80-9), molecular formula C5H5NOS and molecular weight 127.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-Mercaptopyridin-2(1H)-one (C5H5NOS) contains an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 127.16 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
