About Acipimox

Vaqora Chemicals supplies Acipimox, a high-purity reference standard of Acipimox registered under CAS number 51037-30-0. Formula C6H6N2O3, molecular weight 154.12 g/mol. Its systematic (IUPAC) name is 5-methyl-4-oxidopyrazin-4-ium-2-carboxylic acid. Common synonyms include 5-methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid 4-oxide and 5-Methylpyrazinecarboxylic acid 4-oxide.

It is supplied as a solid. Reference materials should be stored sealed and away from light and moisture, as specified on the accompanying COA. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Warning”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

As a reference sample of Acipimox, 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.

Vaqora Chemicals supplies Acipimox in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs, each shipped with a Certificate of Analysis (COA), and exports worldwide.
