3-methoxypyridin-2-ol hydrochloride (CAS 1820686-01-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H7NO2HCl and a molecular weight of 161.59 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C6H7NO2HCl, 3-methoxypyridin-2-ol hydrochloride contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 161.59 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), 3-methoxypyridin-2-ol hydrochloride 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.
