CATO supplies [4'-(Methylsulfanyl)[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl] acetonitrile (CAS 893734-20-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H13NS, MW 239.34 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, [4'-(Methylsulfanyl)[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl] acetonitrile (C15H13NS) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 239.34 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
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.
