The occurrence of 1-(4-Methylpyridin-3-yl)ethanone hydrochloride is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1-(4-Methylpyridin-3-yl)ethanone hydrochloride (CAS 24476-58-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H9NOHCl and a molecular weight of 171.62 g/mol.
1-(4-Methylpyridin-3-yl)ethanone hydrochloride (C8H9NOHCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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), 1-(4-Methylpyridin-3-yl)ethanone hydrochloride 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.
