Chemical Structure

ethyl 6-chloro-5-nitro-pyridine-2-carboxylate CAS 1260669-90-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of ethyl 6-chloro-5-nitro-pyridine-2-carboxylate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies ethyl 6-chloro-5-nitro-pyridine-2-carboxylate (CAS 1260669-90-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H7ClN2O4, MW 230.61 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, ethyl 6-chloro-5-nitro-pyridine-2-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 230.61 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), ethyl 6-chloro-5-nitro-pyridine-2-carboxylate 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.
