Chemical Structure

6-(Methylsulfanyl)pyridine-2-carbonitrile CAS 501378-42-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system, 6-(Methylsulfanyl)pyridine-2-carbonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 150.20 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).

6-(Methylsulfanyl)pyridine-2-carbonitrile (CAS 501378-42-3), molecular formula C7H6N2S and molecular weight 150.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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