Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-chloro-5-pyridinecarboxylate CAS 20825-98-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 3-chloro-5-pyridinecarboxylate 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.

Ethyl 3-chloro-5-pyridinecarboxylate (CAS 20825-98-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H8ClNO2 and a molecular weight of 185.61 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 3-chloro-5-pyridinecarboxylate (C8H8ClNO2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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