Chemical Structure

2,6-Bis(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride CAS 55422-79-2 chemical structure

Description

2,6-Bis(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride (C6H5Cl2NHCl) contains a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

2,6-Bis(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride (CAS 55422-79-2), molecular formula C6H5Cl2NHCl and molecular weight 198.47 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,6-Bis(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride 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.
