3,5-Dichloro-4-methylpyridine CAS 100868-46-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3,5-Dichloro-4-methylpyridine.

3,5-Dichloro-4-methylpyridine (CAS 100868-46-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H5Cl2N and a molecular weight of 162.02 g/mol.

3,5-Dichloro-4-methylpyridine (C6H5Cl2N) contains a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures 3,5-Dichloro-4-methylpyridine under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
