Chemical Structure

Metronidazole hydrochloride, >98% CAS 69198-10-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Metronidazole hydrochloride, >98% under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

Metronidazole hydrochloride, >98% (CAS 69198-10-3), molecular formula C6H9N3O3HCl and molecular weight 207.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Metronidazole hydrochloride, >98% (C6H9N3O3HCl) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 207.61 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
