The occurrence of 1-(2,6-Dimethylpyridin-4-yl)ethan-1-one 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.
1-(2,6-Dimethylpyridin-4-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 72693-15-3), molecular formula C9H11NO and molecular weight 149.19 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, 1-(2,6-Dimethylpyridin-4-yl)ethan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 149.19 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).
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.
