Chemical Structure

Ethyl 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylnicotinate CAS 2004-63-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylnicotinate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylnicotinate (CAS 2004-63-9), molecular formula C16H17NO3 and molecular weight 271.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylnicotinate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 271.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures Ethyl 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methylnicotinate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
