Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 194.66 g/mol gives 3-((2-Chlorobenzyl)amino)propanenitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
3-((2-Chlorobenzyl)amino)propanenitrile (CAS 87844-37-9), molecular formula C10H11ClN2 and molecular weight 194.66 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 3-((2-Chlorobenzyl)amino)propanenitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 194.66 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
