4-(Pyridine-4-amido)benzoic acid CAS 5651-66-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 4-(Pyridine-4-amido)benzoic acid (CAS 5651-66-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H10N2O3, MW 242.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-(Pyridine-4-amido)benzoic acid (C13H10N2O3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

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.
