Chemical Structure
Description
As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 5-Methylpyrimidine-2-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.
Methyl 5-Methylpyrimidine-2-carboxylate (CAS 76196-80-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H8N2O2 and a molecular weight of 152.15 g/mol.
Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Methyl 5-Methylpyrimidine-2-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 152.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
