As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(Iodomethyl)benzonitrile 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.
3-(Iodomethyl)benzonitrile (CAS 69113-58-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6IN and a molecular weight of 243.04 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 3-(Iodomethyl)benzonitrile (C8H6IN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, iodine 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. 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.
