Chemical Structure

2-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile CAS 213993-80-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 213993-80-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H7Cl2F3N2 and a molecular weight of 331.12 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution, 2-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 331.12 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.

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.
