Chemical Structure

4-Methyl-2-(p-tolyl)pyridine CAS 80635-92-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 183.25 g/mol gives 4-Methyl-2-(p-tolyl)pyridine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 4-Methyl-2-(p-tolyl)pyridine (CAS 80635-92-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H13N, MW 183.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-Methyl-2-(p-tolyl)pyridine (C13H13N) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 4-Methyl-2-(p-tolyl)pyridine 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.
