Chemical Structure

Methyl (Z)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylate CAS 144478-31-9 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 Methyl (Z)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylate.

Methyl (Z)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylate (CAS 144478-31-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H8ClNO2 and a molecular weight of 221.64 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Methyl (Z)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 221.64 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.
