Chemical Structure

1-Tetradecylpyridinium Chloride CAS 2785-54-8 chemical structure

Description

1-Tetradecylpyridinium Chloride (CAS 2785-54-8), molecular formula C19H34NCl and molecular weight 311.94 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1-Tetradecylpyridinium Chloride (C19H34NCl) is characterized by 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. 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.

CATO manufactures 1-Tetradecylpyridinium Chloride under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
