1-Benzothiophen-7-ylacetonitrile CAS 17381-53-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Benzothiophen-7-ylacetonitrile 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.

1-Benzothiophen-7-ylacetonitrile (CAS 17381-53-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H7NS and a molecular weight of 173.23 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, 1-Benzothiophen-7-ylacetonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 173.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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