Chemical Structure

6-Chloro-2,4-difluoro-3-methylbenzonitrile CAS 2415751-66-3 chemical structure

Description

6-Chloro-2,4-difluoro-3-methylbenzonitrile (CAS 2415751-66-3), molecular formula C8H4ClF2N and molecular weight 187.57 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 6-Chloro-2,4-difluoro-3-methylbenzonitrile (C8H4ClF2N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 187.57 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
