4-(4-Fluorophenoxy)-5-methoxy-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine CAS 338771-33-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(4-Fluorophenoxy)-5-methoxy-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(4-Fluorophenoxy)-5-methoxy-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine (CAS 338771-33-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H12FN3O2 and a molecular weight of 297.28 g/mol.

Structurally, 4-(4-Fluorophenoxy)-5-methoxy-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine (C16H12FN3O2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 297.28 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
