Chemical Structure

2-(3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile CAS 33797-35-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 33797-35-2), molecular formula C10H11NO and molecular weight 161.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile (C10H11NO) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. 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 2-(3-Methoxy-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile 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.
