Chemical Structure

2-(2-Amino-5-chloropyridin-4-yl)acetonitrile CAS 1805558-34-2 chemical structure

Description

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

2-(2-Amino-5-chloropyridin-4-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 1805558-34-2), molecular formula C7H6ClN3 and molecular weight 167.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(2-Amino-5-chloropyridin-4-yl)acetonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 167.60 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).

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
