Owing to an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Methylthiazole-5-carboxamide is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 142.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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-Methylthiazole-5-carboxamide (CAS 99979-78-9), molecular formula C5H6N2OS and molecular weight 142.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
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.
