Chemical Structure

1-Ethyl-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridinone CAS 30652-12-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 153.18 g/mol gives 1-Ethyl-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridinone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1-Ethyl-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridinone (CAS 30652-12-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H11NO2, MW 153.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-Ethyl-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridinone is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 153.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
