The occurrence of 3,5-Dichloro-6-Methylpyrazine-2-Carbonitrile is closely related to a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
3,5-Dichloro-6-Methylpyrazine-2-Carbonitrile (CAS 89284-80-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H3Cl2N3 and a molecular weight of 188.01 g/mol.
3,5-Dichloro-6-Methylpyrazine-2-Carbonitrile (C6H3Cl2N3) contains a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
