Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-(4-cyanophenyl)acrylate CAS 67472-79-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 187.19 g/mol gives Methyl 3-(4-cyanophenyl)acrylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Methyl 3-(4-cyanophenyl)acrylate (CAS 67472-79-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H9NO2 and a molecular weight of 187.19 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Methyl 3-(4-cyanophenyl)acrylate (C11H9NO2) 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 its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
