Chemical Structure

1-Phenyl-N,N'-di(pyridin-2-yl)methanediamine CAS 41855-95-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 276.34 g/mol gives 1-Phenyl-N,N'-di(pyridin-2-yl)methanediamine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1-Phenyl-N,N'-di(pyridin-2-yl)methanediamine (CAS 41855-95-2), molecular formula C17H16N4 and molecular weight 276.34 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C17H16N4, 1-Phenyl-N,N'-di(pyridin-2-yl)methanediamine contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 276.34 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
