Chemical Structure

2,2-Difluoro-4,4-Dimethyl-3-Oxopentanenitrile CAS 219866-68-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,2-Difluoro-4,4-Dimethyl-3-Oxopentanenitrile is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2,2-Difluoro-4,4-Dimethyl-3-Oxopentanenitrile (CAS 219866-68-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H9F2NO, MW 161.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 2,2-Difluoro-4,4-Dimethyl-3-Oxopentanenitrile is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 161.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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), 2,2-Difluoro-4,4-Dimethyl-3-Oxopentanenitrile 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.
