Chemical Structure

POTASSIUM CYANIDE CAS 151-50-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 65.12 g/mol gives POTASSIUM CYANIDE distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

POTASSIUM CYANIDE (CAS 151-50-8), molecular formula KCN and molecular weight 65.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

POTASSIUM CYANIDE (KCN) contains an organic framework. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

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.
