Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-Cyano-3-(3-nitrophenyl)acrylate CAS 14394-75-3 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.

CATO supplies Ethyl 2-Cyano-3-(3-nitrophenyl)acrylate (CAS 14394-75-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10N2O4, MW 246.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl 2-Cyano-3-(3-nitrophenyl)acrylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 246.22 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 2-Cyano-3-(3-nitrophenyl)acrylate 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.
