Chemical Structure

Diethylcyanamide CAS 617-83-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Diethylcyanamide is closely related to a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Diethylcyanamide (CAS 617-83-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H10N2 and a molecular weight of 98.15 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C5H10N2, Diethylcyanamide contains a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 98.15 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures Diethylcyanamide under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
