2-Butylbenzonitrile CAS 57775-05-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Butylbenzonitrile (CAS 57775-05-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H13N, MW 159.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 2-Butylbenzonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 159.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

CATO manufactures 2-Butylbenzonitrile under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
