Chemical Structure

4-(1H-Indol-5-yl)benzonitrile CAS 694533-08-9 chemical structure

Description

4-(1H-Indol-5-yl)benzonitrile (CAS 694533-08-9), molecular formula C15H10N2 and molecular weight 218.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-(1H-Indol-5-yl)benzonitrile (C15H10N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 218.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(1H-Indol-5-yl)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.
