Chemical Structure

2-(3-Methylbenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)acetonitrile CAS 1197030-31-1 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(3-Methylbenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)acetonitrile (C11H9NS) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. 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).

2-(3-Methylbenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 1197030-31-1), molecular formula C11H9NS and molecular weight 187.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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