6-Chloro-4-methylnicotinonitrile CAS 66909-35-1 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Chloro-4-methylnicotinonitrile meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.

6-Chloro-4-methylnicotinonitrile (CAS 66909-35-1), molecular formula C7H5ClN2 and molecular weight 152.58 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

6-Chloro-4-methylnicotinonitrile (C7H5ClN2) contains a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
