Chemical Structure

(E)-N-(Pyridin-2-ylmethylene)aniline CAS 40468-86-8 chemical structure

Description

(E)-N-(Pyridin-2-ylmethylene)aniline (CAS 40468-86-8), molecular formula C12H10N2 and molecular weight 182.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, (E)-N-(Pyridin-2-ylmethylene)aniline is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), (E)-N-(Pyridin-2-ylmethylene)aniline 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.
