2-(5-Fluoro-6-oxopyrimidin-1(6H)-yl)acetonitrile CAS 218921-37-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(5-Fluoro-6-oxopyrimidin-1(6H)-yl)acetonitrile is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(5-Fluoro-6-oxopyrimidin-1(6H)-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 218921-37-0), molecular formula C6H4FN3O and molecular weight 153.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(5-Fluoro-6-oxopyrimidin-1(6H)-yl)acetonitrile (C6H4FN3O) is characterized by an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
