Chemical Structure

2-amino-5-nitroisonicotinic acid CAS 84487-09-2 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 2-amino-5-nitroisonicotinic acid (CAS 84487-09-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H5N3O4, MW 183.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-amino-5-nitroisonicotinic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 183.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
