Chemical Structure

2-(4-Chlorophenyl)propanenitrile CAS 2184-88-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 165.62 g/mol gives 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)propanenitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(4-Chlorophenyl)propanenitrile (CAS 2184-88-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H8ClN and a molecular weight of 165.62 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C9H8ClN, 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)propanenitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 165.62 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

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.
