Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 125.13 g/mol gives 2-Hydroxy-3-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Hydroxy-3-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one (CAS 914934-16-0), molecular formula C6H7NO2 and molecular weight 125.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Hydroxy-3-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one (C6H7NO2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Hydroxy-3-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one 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.
