Chemical Structure

N-pentadecylpyridiniumbromide CAS 53171-29-2 chemical structure

Description

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

N-pentadecylpyridiniumbromide (CAS 53171-29-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C20H36NBr and a molecular weight of 370.42 g/mol.

The molecular framework of N-pentadecylpyridiniumbromide (C20H36NBr) is characterized by a nitrile group, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

CATO manufactures N-pentadecylpyridiniumbromide under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
