Chemical Structure

4-(Azidomethyl)benzonitrile CAS 84466-87-5 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 4-(Azidomethyl)benzonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 158.16 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.

4-(Azidomethyl)benzonitrile (CAS 84466-87-5), molecular formula C8H6N4 and molecular weight 158.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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