Chemical Structure

3-(bromomethyl)-2-methyl-6-(propan-2-yl)pyridine CAS 1379323-12-2 chemical structure

Description

3-(bromomethyl)-2-methyl-6-(propan-2-yl)pyridine (CAS 1379323-12-2), molecular formula C10H14BrN and molecular weight 228.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 3-(bromomethyl)-2-methyl-6-(propan-2-yl)pyridine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 228.13 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.

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), 3-(bromomethyl)-2-methyl-6-(propan-2-yl)pyridine 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.
