Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Iodo-6-(methylthio)pyrimidine.
4-Iodo-6-(methylthio)pyrimidine (CAS 89125-96-2), molecular formula C5H5IN2S and molecular weight 252.08 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, iodine substitution, 4-Iodo-6-(methylthio)pyrimidine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 252.08 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Iodo-6-(methylthio)pyrimidine 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.
