Chemical Structure

2-(3-Nitrophenyl)propanal CAS 59452-87-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 179.17 g/mol gives 2-(3-Nitrophenyl)propanal distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(3-Nitrophenyl)propanal (CAS 59452-87-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H9NO3 and a molecular weight of 179.17 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-(3-Nitrophenyl)propanal (C9H9NO3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 179.17 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(3-Nitrophenyl)propanal 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.
