Chemical Structure

5-Amino-1-naphthonitrile CAS 72016-73-0 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C11H8N2, 5-Amino-1-naphthonitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 168.19 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies 5-Amino-1-naphthonitrile (CAS 72016-73-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H8N2, MW 168.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
