Chemical Structure

5-Ethyl-2-methyl-4-nitropyridine CAS 13508-97-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 5-Ethyl-2-methyl-4-nitropyridine.

CATO supplies 5-Ethyl-2-methyl-4-nitropyridine (CAS 13508-97-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H10N2O2, MW 166.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 5-Ethyl-2-methyl-4-nitropyridine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 166.18 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), 5-Ethyl-2-methyl-4-nitropyridine 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.
