Chemical Structure

Ethyl 6-cyano-2-methylnicotinate CAS 137347-35-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ethyl 6-cyano-2-methylnicotinate (CAS 137347-35-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H10N2O2, MW 190.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Ethyl 6-cyano-2-methylnicotinate (C10H10N2O2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 6-cyano-2-methylnicotinate 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.
