Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 168.19 g/mol gives 1-Amino-3-cyanonaphthalene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
1-Amino-3-cyanonaphthalene (CAS 91135-42-1), molecular formula C11H8N2 and molecular weight 168.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 1-Amino-3-cyanonaphthalene is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 168.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
