Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-4-hydroxypyridine CAS 17368-12-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Chloro-4-hydroxypyridine.

2-Chloro-4-hydroxypyridine (CAS 17368-12-6), molecular formula C5H4ClNO and molecular weight 129.54 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-Chloro-4-hydroxypyridine is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 129.54 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 2-Chloro-4-hydroxypyridine 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.
