Chemical Structure

2-(4-Chlorophenyl)butan-2-amine CAS 87649-89-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 183.68 g/mol gives 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)butan-2-amine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(4-Chlorophenyl)butan-2-amine (CAS 87649-89-6), molecular formula C10H14ClN and molecular weight 183.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(4-Chlorophenyl)butan-2-amine (C10H14ClN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
