The occurrence of 4-Ethyl-2-(methylthio)thiazole is closely related to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
4-Ethyl-2-(methylthio)thiazole (CAS 83893-89-4), molecular formula C6H9NS2 and molecular weight 159.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 4-Ethyl-2-(methylthio)thiazole (C6H9NS2) is characterized by a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. 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. 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.
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.
