Ethane-1,1,2,2-tetracarbonitrile CAS 14778-29-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Ethane-1,1,2,2-tetracarbonitrile (CAS 14778-29-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H2N4, MW 130.11 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Ethane-1,1,2,2-tetracarbonitrile (C6H2N4) contains a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
