Product Information

• Name: Pyrazine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Pyrazine is a model system that has been used to investigate the reaction mechanism of pyrazinoic acid, an antimicrobial agent. Pyrazine reacts with water to give pyrazinoic acid and hydrogen gas. Pyrazine is also used as an analytical method for determining the concentration of odorant binding compounds in air and as a model system to study the electrochemical properties of odorant binding. The compound is characterized by intermolecular hydrogen bonding and synchronous fluorescence. Pyrazine has been shown to have an adsorption peak at 1780 cm-1 and a Langmuir adsorption isotherm at 10-4 M.
