N-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl)-7H-purin-6-amine (CAS 5786-66-3), molecular formula C12H12N6 and molecular weight 240.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, N-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl)-7H-purin-6-amine (C12H12N6) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 240.26 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
