Chemical Structure

4-(4-Chlorophenyl)piperidine-4-carbonitrile CAS 91721-16-3 chemical structure

Description

4-(4-Chlorophenyl)piperidine-4-carbonitrile (CAS 91721-16-3), molecular formula C12H13ClN2 and molecular weight 220.70 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-(4-Chlorophenyl)piperidine-4-carbonitrile (C12H13ClN2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 220.70 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
