6-Chloro-2-ethylpyridin-3-amine (CAS 910486-72-5), molecular formula C7H9ClN2 and molecular weight 156.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 6-Chloro-2-ethylpyridin-3-amine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 156.61 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
CATO manufactures 6-Chloro-2-ethylpyridin-3-amine 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.
