Chemical Structure

4,4'-(1,4-Phenylene)bis(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) CAS 164173-99-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 4,4'-(1,4-Phenylene)bis(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) 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.

CATO supplies 4,4'-(1,4-Phenylene)bis(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) (CAS 164173-99-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C20H12N2O8, MW 408.32 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4,4'-(1,4-Phenylene)bis(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) (C20H12N2O8) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
