3-(4-Chlorophenyl)benzonitrile CAS 89346-59-8 chemical structure

Description

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

3-(4-Chlorophenyl)benzonitrile (CAS 89346-59-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H8ClN and a molecular weight of 213.66 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 3-(4-Chlorophenyl)benzonitrile (C13H8ClN) 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(4-Chlorophenyl)benzonitrile 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.
