Chemical Structure

3-Trifluoromethylbenzyl isocyanide CAS 602261-89-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

3-Trifluoromethylbenzyl isocyanide (CAS 602261-89-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H6F3N and a molecular weight of 185.15 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution, 3-Trifluoromethylbenzyl isocyanide is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 185.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
