Chemical Structure

4-iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile CAS 101066-87-9 chemical structure

Description

4-iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (CAS 101066-87-9), molecular formula C8H9F3IN and molecular weight 303.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (C8H9F3IN) contains a nitrile group, fluorine/iodine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

CATO manufactures 4-iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile 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.
