Chemical Structure

4- Nitrophenyl Isocyanate(1-Isocyanato-4-nitrobenzene) CAS 100-28-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4- Nitrophenyl Isocyanate(1-Isocyanato-4-nitrobenzene) is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4- Nitrophenyl Isocyanate(1-Isocyanato-4-nitrobenzene) (CAS 100-28-7), molecular formula C7H4N2O3 and molecular weight 164.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4- Nitrophenyl Isocyanate(1-Isocyanato-4-nitrobenzene) (C7H4N2O3) 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

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.
