Chemical Structure

5-(2-Chlorophenyl)nicotinaldehyde CAS 855301-00-7 chemical structure

Description

5-(2-Chlorophenyl)nicotinaldehyde (CAS 855301-00-7), molecular formula C12H8ClNO and molecular weight 217.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C12H8ClNO, 5-(2-Chlorophenyl)nicotinaldehyde contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 217.65 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 5-(2-Chlorophenyl)nicotinaldehyde 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.
