Chemical Structure

6-Bromo-1-naphthonitrile CAS 91065-16-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 6-Bromo-1-naphthonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

6-Bromo-1-naphthonitrile (CAS 91065-16-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H6BrN and a molecular weight of 232.08 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 6-Bromo-1-naphthonitrile (C11H6BrN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine 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 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).

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), 6-Bromo-1-naphthonitrile 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.
