Chemical Structure

Ethyl 4-(4-cyanophenyl)benzoate CAS 89409-89-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 4-(4-cyanophenyl)benzoate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Ethyl 4-(4-cyanophenyl)benzoate (CAS 89409-89-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H13NO2, MW 251.28 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Ethyl 4-(4-cyanophenyl)benzoate (C16H13NO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 4-(4-cyanophenyl)benzoate 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.
