Chemical Structure

5-(2,5-Difluorophenyl)nicotinic acid CAS 887973-41-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-(2,5-Difluorophenyl)nicotinic acid is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

5-(2,5-Difluorophenyl)nicotinic acid (CAS 887973-41-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H7F2NO2 and a molecular weight of 235.19 g/mol.

Structurally, 5-(2,5-Difluorophenyl)nicotinic acid (C12H7F2NO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 235.19 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

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.
