Chemical Structure
Description
6-(Hydroxymethyl)pyridin-3-ol (CAS 40222-77-3), molecular formula C6H7NO2 and molecular weight 125.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 6-(Hydroxymethyl)pyridin-3-ol (C6H7NO2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-(Hydroxymethyl)pyridin-3-ol 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.
