Chemical Structure

3-O-Benzylpyridoxol CAS 7442-21-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-O-Benzylpyridoxol 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.

CATO supplies 3-O-Benzylpyridoxol (CAS 7442-21-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H17NO3, MW 259.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-O-Benzylpyridoxol is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 259.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.

CATO manufactures 3-O-Benzylpyridoxol 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.
