Chemical Structure

(2-Ethoxyimino) Malononitrile CAS 84981-58-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (2-Ethoxyimino) Malononitrile is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(2-Ethoxyimino) Malononitrile (CAS 84981-58-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H5N3O and a molecular weight of 123.11 g/mol.

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, (2-Ethoxyimino) Malononitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 123.11 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2-Ethoxyimino) Malononitrile 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.
