The molecular framework of 2-(3-Chlorophenyl)-4-oxo-4-phenylbutanenitrile (C16H12ClNO) 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
2-(3-Chlorophenyl)-4-oxo-4-phenylbutanenitrile (CAS 344280-04-2), molecular formula C16H12ClNO and molecular weight 269.73 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
