Chemical Structure

1-[(3-Methoxyphenyl)methyl]-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile CAS 338955-37-6 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 1-[(3-Methoxyphenyl)methyl]-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (C20H16N2O2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 14.0, corresponding to approximately 14 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 316.35 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).
