Chemical Structure
Description
(6-Fluoro-5-methylpyridin-2-yl)methanol (CAS 1806331-72-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H8FNO and a molecular weight of 141.14 g/mol.
Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (6-Fluoro-5-methylpyridin-2-yl)methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 141.14 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
