Chemical Structure

4-(4-Nitrobenzyl)pyridine CAS 1083-48-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

4-(4-Nitrobenzyl)pyridine (CAS 1083-48-3), molecular formula C12H10N2O2 and molecular weight 214.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-(4-Nitrobenzyl)pyridine (C12H10N2O2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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).

CATO manufactures 4-(4-Nitrobenzyl)pyridine 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.
