Chemical Structure

N-Methyl-4-(pyridin-3-yl)but-3-en-1-amine CAS 538-79-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of N-Methyl-4-(pyridin-3-yl)but-3-en-1-amine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

N-Methyl-4-(pyridin-3-yl)but-3-en-1-amine (CAS 538-79-4), molecular formula C10H14N2 and molecular weight 162.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, N-Methyl-4-(pyridin-3-yl)but-3-en-1-amine (C10H14N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 162.23 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
