Chemical Structure

2-(Tert-butyl)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile CAS 338960-21-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(Tert-butyl)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(Tert-butyl)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (CAS 338960-21-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H17ClN2O and a molecular weight of 288.77 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-(Tert-butyl)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (C16H17ClN2O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(Tert-butyl)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
