Chemical Structure

4-Amino-2-ethyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamide CAS 90521-74-7 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 4-Amino-2-ethyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamide.

CATO supplies 4-Amino-2-ethyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamide (CAS 90521-74-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H10N4O, MW 154.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-Amino-2-ethyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamide (C6H10N4O) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
