Chemical Structure

2-Ethyl-1H-purine CAS 78564-53-1 chemical structure

Description

2-Ethyl-1H-purine (CAS 78564-53-1), molecular formula C7H8N4 and molecular weight 148.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C7H8N4, 2-Ethyl-1H-purine contains a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 148.17 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Ethyl-1H-purine 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.
