Chemical Structure

3-Oxohexanenitrile CAS 4388-92-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 3-Oxohexanenitrile (CAS 4388-92-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H9NO, MW 111.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-Oxohexanenitrile is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 111.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

CATO manufactures 3-Oxohexanenitrile under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
