Chemical Structure

Pyrimidine-5-carbothioamide CAS 88891-75-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Pyrimidine-5-carbothioamide.

CATO supplies Pyrimidine-5-carbothioamide (CAS 88891-75-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H5N3S, MW 139.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, Pyrimidine-5-carbothioamide is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 139.18 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.

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.
