Chemical Structure

4-(4-Nitrophenoxy)benzonitrile CAS 17076-68-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-(4-Nitrophenoxy)benzonitrile.

CATO supplies 4-(4-Nitrophenoxy)benzonitrile (CAS 17076-68-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H8N2O3, MW 240.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-(4-Nitrophenoxy)benzonitrile (C13H8N2O3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(4-Nitrophenoxy)benzonitrile meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
