Chemical Structure

5-Nitroacenaphthene CAS 602-87-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 199.21 g/mol gives 5-Nitroacenaphthene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5-Nitroacenaphthene (CAS 602-87-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H9NO2 and a molecular weight of 199.21 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 5-Nitroacenaphthene (C12H9NO2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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), 5-Nitroacenaphthene 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.
