2-Cyano-6-methoxynicotinic acid CAS 1806309-01-2 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-Cyano-6-methoxynicotinic acid.

2-Cyano-6-methoxynicotinic acid (CAS 1806309-01-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6N2O3 and a molecular weight of 178.14 g/mol.

2-Cyano-6-methoxynicotinic acid (C8H6N2O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
