Split into string array only the key by comma and not values c# - strsplit

Question

This is my String and i have problems when splitting into string array with comma seperated values for keys
{ Yr = 2019, Mth = DECEMBER , SeqN = 0, UComment = tet,tet1, OComment = test,test1, FWkMth = WK, FSafety = Y, FCustConsign = Y, FNCNRPull = 0, FNCNRPush = 0, CreatedTime = 2020-01-03 06:16:53 }
when i try to use string.Split(',') i get "Ucomment = tet","tet1" as seperate array.
But i need to have split string[] when seperated by comma
UComment = tet,tet1
OComment = test,test1
I have tried using the regex ,(?=([^\"]\"[^\"]\")[^\"]$)" but it didnot work.

You may try matching on the regex pattern \S+\s*=\s*.*?(?=\s*,\s*\S+\s*=|\s*\}$):
string input = "{ Yr = 2019, Mth = DECEMBER , SeqN = 0, UComment = tet,tet1, OComment = test,test1, FWkMth = WK, FSafety = Y, FCustConsign = Y, FNCNRPull = 0, FNCNRPush = 0, CreatedTime = 2020-01-03 06:16:53 }";
Regex regex = new Regex(#"\S+\s*=\s*.*?(?=\s*,\s*\S+\s*=|\s*\}$)");
var results = regex.Matches(input);
foreach (Match match in results)
{
Console.WriteLine(match.Groups[0].Value);
}
This prints:
Yr = 2019
Mth = DECEMBER
SeqN = 0
UComment = tet,tet1
OComment = test,test1
FWkMth = WK
FSafety = Y
FCustConsign = Y
FNCNRPull = 0
FNCNRPush = 0
CreatedTime = 2020-01-03 06:16:53
Here is an explanation of the regex pattern used:
\S+ match a key
\s* followed by optional whitespace and
= literal '='
\s* more optional whitespace
.*? match anything until seeing
(?=\s*,\s*\S+\s*=|\s*\}$) that what follows is either the start of the next key/value OR
is the end of the input
