Chemical Structure

5-(3-Methoxyphenyl)-5-oxopentanenitrile CAS 898786-58-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-(3-Methoxyphenyl)-5-oxopentanenitrile is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

5-(3-Methoxyphenyl)-5-oxopentanenitrile (CAS 898786-58-8), molecular formula C12H13NO2 and molecular weight 203.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-(3-Methoxyphenyl)-5-oxopentanenitrile (C12H13NO2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

CATO manufactures 5-(3-Methoxyphenyl)-5-oxopentanenitrile under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
