Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 212.29 g/mol gives 2-Ethyl-5-(4-ethylphenyl)pyrimidine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 2-Ethyl-5-(4-ethylphenyl)pyrimidine (CAS 208709-64-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H16N2, MW 212.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 2-Ethyl-5-(4-ethylphenyl)pyrimidine is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 212.29 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Ethyl-5-(4-ethylphenyl)pyrimidine 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.
