2-{1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-6-yl}acetonitrile CAS 1261470-40-9 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 2-{1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-6-yl}acetonitrile.

2-{1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-6-yl}acetonitrile (CAS 1261470-40-9), molecular formula C9H7N3 and molecular weight 157.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 2-{1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-6-yl}acetonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 157.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-{1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-6-yl}acetonitrile 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.
