Chemical Structure

2-(4-Ethylphenoxy)-3-pyridinecarboxylic Acid CAS 954567-38-5 chemical structure

Description

2-(4-Ethylphenoxy)-3-pyridinecarboxylic Acid (C14H13NO3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

2-(4-Ethylphenoxy)-3-pyridinecarboxylic Acid (CAS 954567-38-5), molecular formula C14H13NO3 and molecular weight 243.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
