The occurrence of 5,6-Difluoropicolinaldehyde is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
5,6-Difluoropicolinaldehyde (CAS 1227561-77-4), molecular formula C6H3F2NO and molecular weight 143.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 5,6-Difluoropicolinaldehyde (C6H3F2NO) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 143.09 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. 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).
