Chemical Structure

4-(Di-n-propylamino)butyronitrile CAS 70288-99-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrile group, 4-(Di-n-propylamino)butyronitrile is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 168.28 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

4-(Di-n-propylamino)butyronitrile (CAS 70288-99-2), molecular formula C10H20N2 and molecular weight 168.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

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.
