Chemical Structure

2-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-2-(ethylamino)acetonitrile CAS 1040059-32-2 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

2-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-2-(ethylamino)acetonitrile (CAS 1040059-32-2), molecular formula C10H10Cl2N2 and molecular weight 229.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-2-(ethylamino)acetonitrile (C10H10Cl2N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 229.11 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-2-(ethylamino)acetonitrile 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.
