Chemical Structure

2-Amino-4-methylpentanenitrile hydrochloride CAS 72177-82-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to chlorine substitution, 2-Amino-4-methylpentanenitrile hydrochloride is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 148.63 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

2-Amino-4-methylpentanenitrile hydrochloride (CAS 72177-82-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H12N2HCl and a molecular weight of 148.63 g/mol.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Amino-4-methylpentanenitrile hydrochloride 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.
