Chemical Structure

4-azidobutanenitrile CAS 21994-40-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-azidobutanenitrile.

4-azidobutanenitrile (CAS 21994-40-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H6N4 and a molecular weight of 110.12 g/mol.

4-azidobutanenitrile (C4H6N4) contains a nitrile group. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

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.
