Chemical Structure

4,4,4-Trifluorobutyronitrile CAS 690-95-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4,4,4-Trifluorobutyronitrile.

4,4,4-Trifluorobutyronitrile (CAS 690-95-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H4F3N and a molecular weight of 123.08 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4,4,4-Trifluorobutyronitrile (C4H4F3N) is characterized by a nitrile group, fluorine substitution. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4,4,4-Trifluorobutyronitrile 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.
