Chemical Structure

Benzyl isocyanide CAS 10340-91-7 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies Benzyl isocyanide (CAS 10340-91-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H7N, MW 117.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Benzyl isocyanide (C8H7N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Benzyl isocyanide 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.
