Chemical Structure

4-(Diethylamino)butanenitrile CAS 5336-75-4 chemical structure

Description

4-(Diethylamino)butanenitrile (CAS 5336-75-4), molecular formula C8H16N2 and molecular weight 140.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-(Diethylamino)butanenitrile (C8H16N2) is characterized by a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

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.
