Chemical Structure

2-(4-(Trimethylsilyl)phenyl)acetonitrile CAS 17983-41-4 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C11H15NSi, 2-(4-(Trimethylsilyl)phenyl)acetonitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 189.33 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

2-(4-(Trimethylsilyl)phenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 17983-41-4), molecular formula C11H15NSi and molecular weight 189.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(4-(Trimethylsilyl)phenyl)acetonitrile 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.
