Chemical Structure

2-(3-Methylpyridin-2-yl)malononitrile CAS 62019-63-0 chemical structure

Description

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

2-(3-Methylpyridin-2-yl)malononitrile (CAS 62019-63-0), molecular formula C9H7N3 and molecular weight 157.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(3-Methylpyridin-2-yl)malononitrile (C9H7N3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 157.17 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO manufactures 2-(3-Methylpyridin-2-yl)malononitrile 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.
