Chemical Structure

Cytarabine hydrochloride CAS 69-74-9 chemical structure

Description

Cytarabine hydrochloride (CAS 69-74-9), molecular formula C9H13N3O5HCl and molecular weight 279.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Cytarabine hydrochloride (C9H13N3O5HCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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 279.68 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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), Cytarabine hydrochloride 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.
