Chemical Structure

(3-(Benzyloxy)pyridin-2-yl)methanol CAS 6059-29-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (3-(Benzyloxy)pyridin-2-yl)methanol is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(3-(Benzyloxy)pyridin-2-yl)methanol (CAS 6059-29-6), molecular formula C13H13NO2 and molecular weight 215.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C13H13NO2, (3-(Benzyloxy)pyridin-2-yl)methanol contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 215.25 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
