5-Methylisothiazole CAS 693-97-0 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Methylisothiazole 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.

5-Methylisothiazole (CAS 693-97-0), molecular formula C4H5NS and molecular weight 99.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-Methylisothiazole (C4H5NS) contains a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
