Chemical Structure

4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole CAS 20718-41-6 chemical structure

Description

4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole (CAS 20718-41-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H3N3O2Se and a molecular weight of 228.07 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 228.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole 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.
