2-Cyano-5-iodopyridine CAS 41960-47-8 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

2-Cyano-5-iodopyridine (CAS 41960-47-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H3IN2 and a molecular weight of 230.01 g/mol.

2-Cyano-5-iodopyridine (C6H3IN2) contains a nitrile group, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Cyano-5-iodopyridine 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.
