6-Bromopyridine-2-carboximidamide hydrochloride (CAS 1245806-87-4), molecular formula C6H6BrN3HCl and molecular weight 236.50 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrile group, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6-Bromopyridine-2-carboximidamide hydrochloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.50 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Bromopyridine-2-carboximidamide hydrochloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
