Chemical Structure

1-Cyano-8-methylnaphthalene CAS 71235-71-7 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Cyano-8-methylnaphthalene 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.

CATO supplies 1-Cyano-8-methylnaphthalene (CAS 71235-71-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H9N, MW 167.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 1-Cyano-8-methylnaphthalene (C12H9N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 167.21 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
