4-(Chloromethyl)-1-methyl-1,2-dihydropyridin-2-one (CAS 177550-41-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H8ClNO and a molecular weight of 157.60 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 4-(Chloromethyl)-1-methyl-1,2-dihydropyridin-2-one (C7H8ClNO) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
CATO manufactures 4-(Chloromethyl)-1-methyl-1,2-dihydropyridin-2-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.
