Chemical Structure

6-Hydroxy-4-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxamide CAS 25708-87-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 168.15 g/mol gives 6-Hydroxy-4-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxamide distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 6-Hydroxy-4-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxamide (CAS 25708-87-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H8N2O3, MW 168.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 6-Hydroxy-4-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carboxamide (C7H8N2O3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

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.
