Chemical Structure

Rac-(1r,2s)-2-hydroxycyclohexane-1-carbonitrile, trans CAS 63301-31-5 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Rac-(1r,2s)-2-hydroxycyclohexane-1-carbonitrile, trans (C7H11NO) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 125.17 g/mol, it falls into the low-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).

Rac-(1r,2s)-2-hydroxycyclohexane-1-carbonitrile, trans (CAS 63301-31-5), molecular formula C7H11NO and molecular weight 125.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

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.
