5-(4-Chlorophenyl)nicotinic Acid CAS 187999-33-3 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 5-(4-Chlorophenyl)nicotinic Acid.

5-(4-Chlorophenyl)nicotinic Acid (CAS 187999-33-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H8ClNO2 and a molecular weight of 233.65 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C12H8ClNO2, 5-(4-Chlorophenyl)nicotinic Acid contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 233.65 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(4-Chlorophenyl)nicotinic Acid 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.
