Chemical Structure

[3,4'-Bipyridine]-2'-carboxylic acid CAS 4392-89-6 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), [3,4'-Bipyridine]-2'-carboxylic acid 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.

[3,4'-Bipyridine]-2'-carboxylic acid (CAS 4392-89-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H8N2O2 and a molecular weight of 200.19 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, [3,4'-Bipyridine]-2'-carboxylic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 200.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
