CATO supplies 4-Ethylpyridine-2-carboxylic Acid HCl (CAS 79415-18-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H9NO2HCl, MW 187.62 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
4-Ethylpyridine-2-carboxylic Acid HCl (C8H9NO2HCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
CATO manufactures 4-Ethylpyridine-2-carboxylic Acid HCl 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.
