Chemical Structure

2-Amino-1-methyl-1H-1,3-benzodiazole-5-carbonitrile CAS 141691-41-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-Amino-1-methyl-1H-1,3-benzodiazole-5-carbonitrile (C9H8N4) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. 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 supplies 2-Amino-1-methyl-1H-1,3-benzodiazole-5-carbonitrile (CAS 141691-41-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8N4, MW 172.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

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.
