Chemical Structure

5-Fluoro-2-(methylsulfonyl)benzonitrile CAS 1379097-18-3 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-Fluoro-2-(methylsulfonyl)benzonitrile.

CATO supplies 5-Fluoro-2-(methylsulfonyl)benzonitrile (CAS 1379097-18-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H6FNO2S, MW 199.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 5-Fluoro-2-(methylsulfonyl)benzonitrile (C8H6FNO2S) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 199.20 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

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.
