Chemical Structure

Nitrosoguanidine CAS 674-81-7 chemical structure

Description

Nitrosoguanidine (CAS 674-81-7), molecular formula CH4N4O and molecular weight 88.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Nitrosoguanidine (CH4N4O) contains a hydroxyl group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 88.07 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Nitrosoguanidine meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
