Chemical Structure

2-(6-Ethoxypyridin-2-yl)acetonitrile CAS 53676-89-4 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(6-Ethoxypyridin-2-yl)acetonitrile (C9H10N2O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

2-(6-Ethoxypyridin-2-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 53676-89-4), molecular formula C9H10N2O and molecular weight 162.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
