Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 235.64 g/mol gives 5-(4-Chloro-2-fluorophenyl)nicotinaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 5-(4-Chloro-2-fluorophenyl)nicotinaldehyde (CAS 1346691-91-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H7ClFNO, MW 235.64 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, fluorine/chlorine substitution, 5-(4-Chloro-2-fluorophenyl)nicotinaldehyde is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 235.64 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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), 5-(4-Chloro-2-fluorophenyl)nicotinaldehyde 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.
