4-(2,4-Difluorophenoxy)-5-methoxy-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine CAS 338771-61-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

4-(2,4-Difluorophenoxy)-5-methoxy-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine (CAS 338771-61-2), molecular formula C16H11F2N3O2 and molecular weight 315.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-(2,4-Difluorophenoxy)-5-methoxy-2-(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidine (C16H11F2N3O2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
