N,N’-Bis-(4-chloro-benzyl)-malonamide CAS 379254-86-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 351.23 g/mol gives N,N’-Bis-(4-chloro-benzyl)-malonamide distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

N,N’-Bis-(4-chloro-benzyl)-malonamide (CAS 379254-86-1), molecular formula C17H16Cl2N2O2 and molecular weight 351.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

N,N’-Bis-(4-chloro-benzyl)-malonamide (C17H16Cl2N2O2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), N,N’-Bis-(4-chloro-benzyl)-malonamide 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.
