Chemical Structure

2-(Methylthio)thiazole-5-carbaldehyde CAS 95453-55-7 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(Methylthio)thiazole-5-carbaldehyde (C5H5NOS2) is characterized by an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).

2-(Methylthio)thiazole-5-carbaldehyde (CAS 95453-55-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H5NOS2 and a molecular weight of 159.23 g/mol.

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-(Methylthio)thiazole-5-carbaldehyde 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.
