Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-cyano-2-oxo-6-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-4-carboxylate CAS 18060-61-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 3-cyano-2-oxo-6-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-4-carboxylate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 3-cyano-2-oxo-6-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-4-carboxylate (CAS 18060-61-2), molecular formula C15H12N2O3 and molecular weight 268.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl 3-cyano-2-oxo-6-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-4-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 268.27 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 3-cyano-2-oxo-6-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-4-carboxylate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
