5-Iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetonitrile CAS 1261748-42-8 chemical structure

Description

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

5-Iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetonitrile (CAS 1261748-42-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H5F3IN and a molecular weight of 311.04 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 5-Iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetonitrile (C9H5F3IN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/iodine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, 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).

CATO manufactures 5-Iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetonitrile 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.
