6627-91-4 Benzoic acid, 2-(cyanomethyl)- 2-(Cyanomethyl)benzoic acid 3-09-00-04267 (Beilstein Handbook Reference) BRN 0472769 o-Carboxyphenylacetonitrile alpha-Cyano-o-toluic acid EINECS 229-602-3 o-Toluic acid, alpha-cyano- (CAS 6627-91-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H13NO2 and a molecular weight of 167.21 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 6627-91-4 Benzoic acid, 2-(cyanomethyl)- 2-(Cyanomethyl)benzoic acid 3-09-00-04267 (Beilstein Handbook Reference) BRN 0472769 o-Carboxyphenylacetonitrile alpha-Cyano-o-toluic acid EINECS 229-602-3 o-Toluic acid, alpha-cyano- (C9H13NO2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
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.
