5-Amino-4-chloro-2-methylbenzonitrile CAS 1173434-90-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 5-Amino-4-chloro-2-methylbenzonitrile.

5-Amino-4-chloro-2-methylbenzonitrile (CAS 1173434-90-6), molecular formula C8H7ClN2 and molecular weight 166.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-Amino-4-chloro-2-methylbenzonitrile (C8H7ClN2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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 5-Amino-4-chloro-2-methylbenzonitrile 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.
