CATO manufactures 6-fluoro-3-hydroxypyridine-2-carbonitrile 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.
CATO supplies 6-fluoro-3-hydroxypyridine-2-carbonitrile (CAS 727736-71-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H3FN2O, MW 138.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6-fluoro-3-hydroxypyridine-2-carbonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 138.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
