Yes, that's expected/normal. .NETStandard 1.6 requires .NET Framework 4.6.3 (aka vNext) which is an unreleased version of the .NET Framework.

See this matrix for information. If you want to target .NET Framework 4.5.1 your class library must be ".NET Standard 1.2" or lower. This reduce the number of API you can use, so you always need to balance between minimum version supported and newest API.
