Chemical Structure

2,6-Difluorobenzonitrile CAS 1897-52-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 139.10 g/mol gives 2,6-Difluorobenzonitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2,6-Difluorobenzonitrile (CAS 1897-52-5), molecular formula C7H3F2N and molecular weight 139.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2,6-Difluorobenzonitrile (C7H3F2N) is characterized by a nitrile group, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, 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.

CATO manufactures 2,6-Difluorobenzonitrile 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.
