The occurrence of Metoprine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies Metoprine (CAS 7761-45-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H10Cl2N4, MW 269.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Metoprine (C11H10Cl2N4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
CATO manufactures Metoprine 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.
