Methyl 5-methylthiazole-4-carboxylate CAS 68751-05-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Methyl 5-methylthiazole-4-carboxylate (CAS 68751-05-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H7NO2S, MW 157.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Methyl 5-methylthiazole-4-carboxylate (C6H7NO2S) is characterized by an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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), Methyl 5-methylthiazole-4-carboxylate 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.
