Chemical Structure

4-Cyclohexylbenzonitrile CAS 27634-88-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 185.26 g/mol gives 4-Cyclohexylbenzonitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 4-Cyclohexylbenzonitrile (CAS 27634-88-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H15N, MW 185.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-Cyclohexylbenzonitrile (C13H15N) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

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.
