About Gimeracil

Vaqora Chemicals supplies Gimeracil, a high-purity reference standard of Gimeracil registered under CAS number 103766-25-2. Formula C5H4ClNO2, molecular weight 145.54 g/mol. Its systematic (IUPAC) name is 5-chloro-4-hydroxy-1H-pyridin-2-one. It is also known as 5-Chloro-2,4-dihydroxypyridine or 5-Chloro-2,4-pyridinediol.

The product is provided as a solid. Keep the vial tightly closed, protected from light and humidity, at the temperature stated on the Certificate of Analysis. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Warning”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

As a reference sample of Gimeracil, it is used for identification, assay and impurity-profiling work during analytical method development, validation (AMV) and routine QC. Typical end-use sectors are pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

We offer Gimeracil in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs with a batch-specific COA, and ship to customers worldwide.
