2-(4-Methylphenyl)-6-(thiophen-2-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-3-carbonitrile CAS 478068-03-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-(4-Methylphenyl)-6-(thiophen-2-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-3-carbonitrile (CAS 478068-03-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H11F3N2S, MW 344.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C18H11F3N2S, 2-(4-Methylphenyl)-6-(thiophen-2-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-3-carbonitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 344.35 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
