Chemical Structure

1,10-Phenanthroline-5-carbonitrile CAS 1082-21-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,10-Phenanthroline-5-carbonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1,10-Phenanthroline-5-carbonitrile (CAS 1082-21-9), molecular formula C13H7N3 and molecular weight 205.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1,10-Phenanthroline-5-carbonitrile (C13H7N3) 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,10-Phenanthroline-5-carbonitrile 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.
