Chemical Structure

2-(4-Amino-2-chloro-5-methylphenyl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile CAS 61437-85-2 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.

CATO supplies 2-(4-Amino-2-chloro-5-methylphenyl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 61437-85-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H12Cl2N2, MW 291.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 2-(4-Amino-2-chloro-5-methylphenyl)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 291.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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