Chemical Structure

1-(4-Fluoro-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)ethan-1-one CAS 1393554-59-0 chemical structure

Description

1-(4-Fluoro-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 1393554-59-0), molecular formula C8H8FNO and molecular weight 153.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 1-(4-Fluoro-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)ethan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 153.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures 1-(4-Fluoro-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)ethan-1-one under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
