Chemical Structure
Description
4-(Aminomethyl)benzonitrile Hydrochloride (CAS 15996-76-6), molecular formula C8H8N2HCl and molecular weight 168.62 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 4-(Aminomethyl)benzonitrile Hydrochloride (C8H8N2HCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 168.62 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.
CATO manufactures 4-(Aminomethyl)benzonitrile Hydrochloride under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
