Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 5,6-Dihydropteridin-7(1H)-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 150.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
5,6-Dihydropteridin-7(1H)-one (CAS 6742-34-3), molecular formula C6H6N4O and molecular weight 150.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 5,6-Dihydropteridin-7(1H)-one 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.
