Chemical Structure

[2,4'-Bipyridine]-2',6'-dicarboxylic acid CAS 115486-02-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures [2,4'-Bipyridine]-2',6'-dicarboxylic acid 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.

[2,4'-Bipyridine]-2',6'-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 115486-02-7), molecular formula C12H8N2O4 and molecular weight 244.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, [2,4'-Bipyridine]-2',6'-dicarboxylic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 244.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
