Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-4-methylpentanenitrile CAS 150478-86-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromo-4-methylpentanenitrile is closely related to a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Bromo-4-methylpentanenitrile (CAS 150478-86-7), molecular formula C6H10BrN and molecular weight 176.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Bromo-4-methylpentanenitrile (C6H10BrN) contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 176.05 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
