Chemical Structure

2-Amino-3,5-dibromo-6-methylpyrazine CAS 74290-66-7 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

CATO supplies 2-Amino-3,5-dibromo-6-methylpyrazine (CAS 74290-66-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H5Br2N3, MW 266.92 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Amino-3,5-dibromo-6-methylpyrazine (C5H5Br2N3) is characterized by a nitrile group, bromine substitution. 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.
