Chemical Structure

Pentyl 2-cyanoacetate CAS 17686-39-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Pentyl 2-cyanoacetate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Pentyl 2-cyanoacetate (CAS 17686-39-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H15Cl2N3O4 and a molecular weight of 324.16 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C11H15Cl2N3O4, Pentyl 2-cyanoacetate contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 324.16 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
