Chemical Structure

N-Ethyl-6-methylpyridin-2-amine CAS 39179-00-5 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.

CATO supplies N-Ethyl-6-methylpyridin-2-amine (CAS 39179-00-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H12N2, MW 136.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, N-Ethyl-6-methylpyridin-2-amine is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 136.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), N-Ethyl-6-methylpyridin-2-amine 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.
