β-Hydroxybutyronitrile CAS 4368-06-3 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.

CATO supplies β-Hydroxybutyronitrile (CAS 4368-06-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H7NO, MW 85.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

β-Hydroxybutyronitrile (C4H7NO) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), β-Hydroxybutyronitrile 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.
