Chemical Structure

6-Amino Nicotinic Acid CAS 3167-49-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 6-Amino Nicotinic Acid is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

6-Amino Nicotinic Acid (CAS 3167-49-5), molecular formula C6H6N2O2 and molecular weight 138.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 6-Amino Nicotinic Acid is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 138.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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 6-Amino Nicotinic Acid 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.
