[3,4'-Bipyridine]-3',5'-dicarboxylic acid CAS 115486-03-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 244.20 g/mol gives [3,4'-Bipyridine]-3',5'-dicarboxylic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies [3,4'-Bipyridine]-3',5'-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 115486-03-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H8N2O4, MW 244.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

[3,4'-Bipyridine]-3',5'-dicarboxylic acid (C12H8N2O4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
