Chemical Structure

2,4-Dichloro-6-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarbonitrile CAS 78494-42-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2,4-Dichloro-6-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarbonitrile (CAS 78494-42-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H5Cl2N3, MW 250.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 2,4-Dichloro-6-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarbonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 250.08 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures 2,4-Dichloro-6-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarbonitrile 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.
