Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl 2-cyano-2-(quinolin-2(1H)-ylidene)acetate CAS 2859-27-0 chemical structure

Description

tert-Butyl 2-cyano-2-(quinolin-2(1H)-ylidene)acetate (CAS 2859-27-0), molecular formula C16H16N2O2 and molecular weight 268.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C16H16N2O2, tert-Butyl 2-cyano-2-(quinolin-2(1H)-ylidene)acetate contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 268.31 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

CATO manufactures tert-Butyl 2-cyano-2-(quinolin-2(1H)-ylidene)acetate 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.
