Ethyl 4-chloro-2-(pyridin-3-yl)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate (CAS 34775-04-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H10ClN3O2 and a molecular weight of 263.68 g/mol.
The molecular framework of Ethyl 4-chloro-2-(pyridin-3-yl)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate (C12H10ClN3O2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 4-chloro-2-(pyridin-3-yl)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
