Chemical Structure

Octylpyridinium bromide CAS 2534-66-9 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Octylpyridinium bromide 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.

Octylpyridinium bromide (CAS 2534-66-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H22NBr and a molecular weight of 272.23 g/mol.

Octylpyridinium bromide (C13H22NBr) contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
