2-(3-(4-Fluorobenzyl)-4-oxo-3,4-dihydrophthalazin-1-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 478041-35-9), molecular formula C17H12FN3O and molecular weight 293.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 2-(3-(4-Fluorobenzyl)-4-oxo-3,4-dihydrophthalazin-1-yl)acetonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 293.30 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).
CATO manufactures 2-(3-(4-Fluorobenzyl)-4-oxo-3,4-dihydrophthalazin-1-yl)acetonitrile 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.
