4-Hydroxy-3,5-dinitrobenzonitrile CAS 2315-80-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

4-Hydroxy-3,5-dinitrobenzonitrile (CAS 2315-80-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H3N3O5 and a molecular weight of 209.12 g/mol.

Structurally, 4-Hydroxy-3,5-dinitrobenzonitrile (C7H3N3O5) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 209.12 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
