Chemical Structure

2-(4-(Bromomethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile CAS 7371-94-0 chemical structure

Description

2-(4-(Bromomethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 7371-94-0), molecular formula C9H8BrN and molecular weight 210.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(4-(Bromomethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile (C9H8BrN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures 2-(4-(Bromomethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
