2-(2-Fluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile CAS 239087-11-7 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

2-(2-Fluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 239087-11-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H5F4N and a molecular weight of 203.14 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C9H5F4N, 2-(2-Fluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 203.14 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
