The molecular framework of 2-(4-Bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile (C9H5BrF3N) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, 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).
2-(4-Bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 877131-92-5), molecular formula C9H5BrF3N and molecular weight 264.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
