Chemical Structure

4-Benzoyl-4-(2-cyanoethyl)heptanedinitrile CAS 5342-96-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 279.34 g/mol gives 4-Benzoyl-4-(2-cyanoethyl)heptanedinitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4-Benzoyl-4-(2-cyanoethyl)heptanedinitrile (CAS 5342-96-1), molecular formula C17H17N3O and molecular weight 279.34 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, 4-Benzoyl-4-(2-cyanoethyl)heptanedinitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 279.34 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 4-Benzoyl-4-(2-cyanoethyl)heptanedinitrile 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.
