Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-5-ethylbenzonitrile CAS 67648-09-3 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 2-Chloro-5-ethylbenzonitrile (C9H8ClN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 165.62 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies 2-Chloro-5-ethylbenzonitrile (CAS 67648-09-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8ClN, MW 165.62 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
