Chemical Structure

2,5-Dichloroterephthalonitrile CAS 1897-43-4 chemical structure

Description

2,5-Dichloroterephthalonitrile (C8H2Cl2N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

2,5-Dichloroterephthalonitrile (CAS 1897-43-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H2Cl2N2 and a molecular weight of 197.02 g/mol.

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.

CATO manufactures 2,5-Dichloroterephthalonitrile under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
