Chemical Structure

2-(o-Tolyl)pyrazine CAS 87537-41-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(o-Tolyl)pyrazine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-(o-Tolyl)pyrazine (CAS 87537-41-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H10N2, MW 170.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-(o-Tolyl)pyrazine (C11H10N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 170.21 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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-(o-Tolyl)pyrazine 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.
