Chemical Structure

2-nitro-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid CAS 19625-68-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-nitro-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-nitro-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (CAS 19625-68-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H5NO8 and a molecular weight of 255.14 g/mol.

2-nitro-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (C9H5NO8) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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-nitro-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid 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.
