Chemical Structure

4-Methylbenzotriazole CAS 29878-31-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Methylbenzotriazole is closely related to a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-Methylbenzotriazole (CAS 29878-31-7), molecular formula C7H7N3 and molecular weight 133.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-Methylbenzotriazole (C7H7N3) contains a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

CATO manufactures 4-Methylbenzotriazole 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.
