Chemical Structure

4-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzylisocyanide CAS 374081-26-2 chemical structure

Description

4-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzylisocyanide (CAS 374081-26-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H13N and a molecular weight of 207.27 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 4-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzylisocyanide is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 207.27 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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-(Trifluoromethoxy)benzylisocyanide 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.
