Chemical Structure

2-Methyleneoctanenitrile CAS 5633-86-3 chemical structure

Description

2-Methyleneoctanenitrile (CAS 5633-86-3), molecular formula C9H15N and molecular weight 137.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Methyleneoctanenitrile (C9H15N) contains a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 137.22 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. 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.
