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.
2,6-Dimethylpyridine-3-carbaldehyde (CAS 650141-20-1), molecular formula C8H9NO and molecular weight 135.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2,6-Dimethylpyridine-3-carbaldehyde is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 135.16 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
CATO manufactures 2,6-Dimethylpyridine-3-carbaldehyde under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
