Chemical Structure

2-(6-Fluoronaphthalen-2-yl)acetonitrile CAS 66922-61-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 185.20 g/mol gives 2-(6-Fluoronaphthalen-2-yl)acetonitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(6-Fluoronaphthalen-2-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 66922-61-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H8FN and a molecular weight of 185.20 g/mol.

2-(6-Fluoronaphthalen-2-yl)acetonitrile (C12H8FN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

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.
