3-(Pyridin-3-yl)benzonitrile CAS 4350-54-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(Pyridin-3-yl)benzonitrile 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.

3-(Pyridin-3-yl)benzonitrile (CAS 4350-54-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H8N2 and a molecular weight of 180.21 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 3-(Pyridin-3-yl)benzonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 180.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
