Chemical Structure

6-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)pyridine-2-carboxylic acid CAS 887982-75-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 6-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 887982-75-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H10FNO3, MW 247.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 6-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)pyridine-2-carboxylic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 247.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 6-(5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)pyridine-2-carboxylic acid 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.
