Chemical Structure

2,6-Dimethyl-4-phenylpyridine CAS 3044-71-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,6-Dimethyl-4-phenylpyridine is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2,6-Dimethyl-4-phenylpyridine (CAS 3044-71-1), molecular formula C17H12Cl2N2O3 and molecular weight 363.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2,6-Dimethyl-4-phenylpyridine is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 363.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,6-Dimethyl-4-phenylpyridine 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.
