Chemical Structure

3-(Chloromethyl)pyridin-2-amine hydrochloride CAS 858431-27-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

3-(Chloromethyl)pyridin-2-amine hydrochloride (CAS 858431-27-3), molecular formula C6H7ClN2HCl and molecular weight 179.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-(Chloromethyl)pyridin-2-amine hydrochloride (C6H7ClN2HCl) is characterized by a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. 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. 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(Chloromethyl)pyridin-2-amine hydrochloride 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.
