CATO supplies 6-Bromo-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1h-pyridin-2-one (CAS 1807166-41-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H6BrNO2, MW 204.02 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 6-Bromo-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1h-pyridin-2-one (C6H6BrNO2) is characterized by an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Bromo-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1h-pyridin-2-one 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.
