Methyl 1-(2-cyanoethyl)-6-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-4-carboxylate (CAS 1018142-10-3), molecular formula C18H15FN4O2 and molecular weight 338.34 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Methyl 1-(2-cyanoethyl)-6-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-4-carboxylate (C18H15FN4O2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
