Chemical Structure

2-(Chloromethyl)-3-(difluoromethyl)-6-methylpyridine-5-acetic acid CAS 1361841-89-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(Chloromethyl)-3-(difluoromethyl)-6-methylpyridine-5-acetic acid is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(Chloromethyl)-3-(difluoromethyl)-6-methylpyridine-5-acetic acid (CAS 1361841-89-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H10ClF2NO2 and a molecular weight of 249.64 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-(Chloromethyl)-3-(difluoromethyl)-6-methylpyridine-5-acetic acid (C10H10ClF2NO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution. 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 249.64 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
