5-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-methylpyridine CAS 23148-35-8 chemical structure

Description

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

5-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-methylpyridine (CAS 23148-35-8), molecular formula C12H10ClN and molecular weight 203.67 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-methylpyridine (C12H10ClN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
