Chemical Structure

2-(1-Cyanoethyl)benzonitrile CAS 1071119-13-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 156.18 g/mol gives 2-(1-Cyanoethyl)benzonitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(1-Cyanoethyl)benzonitrile (CAS 1071119-13-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8N2 and a molecular weight of 156.18 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-(1-Cyanoethyl)benzonitrile (C10H8N2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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 2-(1-Cyanoethyl)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.
