Chemical Structure

2-Pyridylacetonitrile CAS 2739-97-1 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C7H6N2, 2-Pyridylacetonitrile contains a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 118.14 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).
