Chemical Structure

4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-4-oxobutanenitrile CAS 344280-36-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-4-oxobutanenitrile.

CATO supplies 4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-4-oxobutanenitrile (CAS 344280-36-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H10Cl3NO, MW 338.62 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-4-oxobutanenitrile (C16H10Cl3NO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-4-oxobutanenitrile 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.
