Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 1,1-Dinitroethane is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1,1-Dinitroethane (CAS 600-40-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C2H4N2O4 and a molecular weight of 120.06 g/mol.
Structurally, 1,1-Dinitroethane (C2H4N2O4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 120.06 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,1-Dinitroethane 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.
