Chemical Structure

Pyridine Hydroiodide CAS 18820-83-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Pyridine Hydroiodide (CAS 18820-83-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula HIC5H5N, MW 207.01 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Pyridine Hydroiodide (HIC5H5N) contains a nitrile group, iodine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 207.01 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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), Pyridine Hydroiodide 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.
