Chemical Structure

2-(2-Chloro-3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acetonitrile CAS 7537-07-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(2-Chloro-3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acetonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(2-Chloro-3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 7537-07-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H10ClNO2 and a molecular weight of 211.64 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-(2-Chloro-3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acetonitrile (C10H10ClNO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 211.64 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(2-Chloro-3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acetonitrile 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.
