Chemical Structure

Methyl 6-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-2-methylnicotinate CAS 1447960-36-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Methyl 6-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-2-methylnicotinate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 271.31 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).

Methyl 6-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-2-methylnicotinate (CAS 1447960-36-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H17NO3 and a molecular weight of 271.31 g/mol.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
