Chemical Structure

3,5-Difluoro-2-nitrobenzonitrile CAS 868596-13-8 chemical structure

Description

3,5-Difluoro-2-nitrobenzonitrile (CAS 868596-13-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H2F2N2O2 and a molecular weight of 184.10 g/mol.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3,5-Difluoro-2-nitrobenzonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 184.10 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.

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