Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-hydroxy-5-methylnicotinate CAS 85147-15-5 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Ethyl 2-hydroxy-5-methylnicotinate (C9H11NO3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 181.19 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

Ethyl 2-hydroxy-5-methylnicotinate (CAS 85147-15-5), molecular formula C9H11NO3 and molecular weight 181.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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), Ethyl 2-hydroxy-5-methylnicotinate 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.
