Chemical Structure

2-(Phenethylamino)-2-(p-tolyl)-acetonitrile hydrochloride CAS 1440535-78-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 2-(Phenethylamino)-2-(p-tolyl)-acetonitrile hydrochloride is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 286.80 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

2-(Phenethylamino)-2-(p-tolyl)-acetonitrile hydrochloride (CAS 1440535-78-3), molecular formula C17H18N2HCl and molecular weight 286.80 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(Phenethylamino)-2-(p-tolyl)-acetonitrile hydrochloride 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.
