Chemical Structure

5-Nitro-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile CAS 320405-84-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-Nitro-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile 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.

5-Nitro-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (CAS 320405-84-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H3N3O3 and a molecular weight of 165.11 g/mol.

Structurally, 5-Nitro-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (C6H3N3O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 165.11 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

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.
