Chemical Structure

2,6-Dimethyl-N-(2-nitrobenzylidene)aniline CAS 109772-86-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 254.28 g/mol gives 2,6-Dimethyl-N-(2-nitrobenzylidene)aniline distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2,6-Dimethyl-N-(2-nitrobenzylidene)aniline (CAS 109772-86-3), molecular formula C15H14N2O2 and molecular weight 254.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2,6-Dimethyl-N-(2-nitrobenzylidene)aniline (C15H14N2O2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
