The occurrence of 2-(3-(Trifluoromethyl)isoxazol-5-yl)acetonitrile is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 2-(3-(Trifluoromethyl)isoxazol-5-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 1420792-36-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H3F3N2O, MW 176.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
2-(3-(Trifluoromethyl)isoxazol-5-yl)acetonitrile (C6H3F3N2O) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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.
