Chemical Structure

2-(Difluoromethyl)-4-hydroxy-3-(trifluoromethoxy)pyridine-6-carboxylic acid CAS 1803960-46-4 chemical structure

Description

2-(Difluoromethyl)-4-hydroxy-3-(trifluoromethoxy)pyridine-6-carboxylic acid (CAS 1803960-46-4), molecular formula C8H4F5NO4 and molecular weight 273.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C8H4F5NO4, 2-(Difluoromethyl)-4-hydroxy-3-(trifluoromethoxy)pyridine-6-carboxylic acid contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 273.11 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
