Description
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
2-(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 80141-97-5), molecular formula C9H8FN and molecular weight 149.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 2-(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)acetonitrile (C9H8FN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine 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 149.16 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
CATO manufactures 2-(5-Fluoro-2-methylphenyl)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.
