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.
1-Methyl-3-(methylsulfonyl)pyridin-1-ium iodide (CAS 52693-60-4), molecular formula C7H10NO2SI and molecular weight 299.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, 1-Methyl-3-(methylsulfonyl)pyridin-1-ium iodide is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 299.12 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), 1-Methyl-3-(methylsulfonyl)pyridin-1-ium iodide 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.
