The occurrence of (5-Fluoro-4-methylpyridin-2-yl)methanol is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
(5-Fluoro-4-methylpyridin-2-yl)methanol (CAS 1427366-05-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H8FNO and a molecular weight of 141.14 g/mol.
Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (5-Fluoro-4-methylpyridin-2-yl)methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 141.14 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.
