4-Methyl-6-(methylthio)pyrimidin-5-amine (CAS 89465-44-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H9N3S and a molecular weight of 155.22 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 4-Methyl-6-(methylthio)pyrimidin-5-amine (C6H9N3S) is characterized by a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system. 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. 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Methyl-6-(methylthio)pyrimidin-5-amine 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.
