Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Cyano-2-(difluoromethyl)-3-hydroxypyridine-6-carboxaldehyde.
CATO supplies 4-Cyano-2-(difluoromethyl)-3-hydroxypyridine-6-carboxaldehyde (CAS 1806949-40-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H4F2N2O2, MW 198.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 4-Cyano-2-(difluoromethyl)-3-hydroxypyridine-6-carboxaldehyde (C8H4F2N2O2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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).
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.
