Chemical Structure

Sodium 2-(4-bromo-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)acetate CAS 2138117-88-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Sodium 2-(4-bromo-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)acetate is closely related to a salt form, a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Sodium 2-(4-bromo-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)acetate (CAS 2138117-88-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H7BrNO2Na and a molecular weight of 252.04 g/mol.

Owing to a salt form, a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, Sodium 2-(4-bromo-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)acetate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 252.04 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.

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), Sodium 2-(4-bromo-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)acetate 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.
