Chemical Structure

1-(2-Fluoro-3-pyridyl)ethanol CAS 79574-61-1 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 1-(2-Fluoro-3-pyridyl)ethanol (C7H8FNO) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO supplies 1-(2-Fluoro-3-pyridyl)ethanol (CAS 79574-61-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H8FNO, MW 141.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(2-Fluoro-3-pyridyl)ethanol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
