5-(chloromethyl)-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyridine hydrochloride (CAS 1909305-29-8), molecular formula C11H9ClN2HCl and molecular weight 241.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 5-(chloromethyl)-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyridine hydrochloride is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 241.11 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(chloromethyl)-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyridine 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.
