Chemical Structure

2-(Dimethylamino)-2-methylpropanenitrile CAS 2273-40-7 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(Dimethylamino)-2-methylpropanenitrile (C6H12N2) is characterized by a nitrile group. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO supplies 2-(Dimethylamino)-2-methylpropanenitrile (CAS 2273-40-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H12N2, MW 112.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
