Chemical Structure

4-Chloro-2-nitrobenzonitrile CAS 34662-32-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Chloro-2-nitrobenzonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.56 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

4-Chloro-2-nitrobenzonitrile (CAS 34662-32-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H3ClN2O2 and a molecular weight of 182.56 g/mol.
