Chemical Structure

1-(2-(4-Nitrophenyl)-2-oxoethyl)pyridin-1-ium iodide CAS 5330-73-4 chemical structure

Description

1-(2-(4-Nitrophenyl)-2-oxoethyl)pyridin-1-ium iodide (CAS 5330-73-4), molecular formula C13H11N2O3I and molecular weight 370.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, 1-(2-(4-Nitrophenyl)-2-oxoethyl)pyridin-1-ium iodide is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 370.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(2-(4-Nitrophenyl)-2-oxoethyl)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.
