The occurrence of 6-Methylpicolinimidamide hydrochloride is closely related to a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 6-Methylpicolinimidamide hydrochloride (CAS 112736-11-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H9N3HCl, MW 171.63 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6-Methylpicolinimidamide hydrochloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 171.63 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
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 6-Methylpicolinimidamide hydrochloride 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.
