Chemical Structure

2-(Pyrimidin-5-yl)acetaldehyde CAS 944898-40-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(Pyrimidin-5-yl)acetaldehyde is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-(Pyrimidin-5-yl)acetaldehyde (CAS 944898-40-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H6N2O, MW 122.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(Pyrimidin-5-yl)acetaldehyde (C6H6N2O) 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. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-(Pyrimidin-5-yl)acetaldehyde under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
