Chemical Structure

[2,2'-Bipyridine]-5,5'-dicarbonitrile CAS 1802-29-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 206.20 g/mol gives [2,2'-Bipyridine]-5,5'-dicarbonitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies [2,2'-Bipyridine]-5,5'-dicarbonitrile (CAS 1802-29-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H6N4, MW 206.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of [2,2'-Bipyridine]-5,5'-dicarbonitrile (C12H6N4) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), [2,2'-Bipyridine]-5,5'-dicarbonitrile 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.
