6-Nitrobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-5-carbonitrile CAS 52805-38-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 6-Nitrobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-5-carbonitrile.

6-Nitrobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-5-carbonitrile (CAS 52805-38-6), molecular formula C8H4N2O4 and molecular weight 192.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 6-Nitrobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-5-carbonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 192.13 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Nitrobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole-5-carbonitrile 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.
