Chemical Structure

2-(2-((Trifluoromethyl)thio)phenyl)acetonitrile CAS 237424-20-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(2-((Trifluoromethyl)thio)phenyl)acetonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-(2-((Trifluoromethyl)thio)phenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 237424-20-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H6F3NS, MW 217.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution, 2-(2-((Trifluoromethyl)thio)phenyl)acetonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 217.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures 2-(2-((Trifluoromethyl)thio)phenyl)acetonitrile under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
