2-Cyano-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acetamide CAS 15029-40-0

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 128.13 g/mol gives 2-Cyano-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acetamide distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Cyano-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acetamide (CAS 15029-40-0), molecular formula C5H8N2O2 and molecular weight 128.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Cyano-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acetamide is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 128.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
