1-Methyl-3-(4-nitrophenyl)benzene CAS 952-21-6 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

1-Methyl-3-(4-nitrophenyl)benzene (CAS 952-21-6), molecular formula C13H11NO2 and molecular weight 213.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1-Methyl-3-(4-nitrophenyl)benzene (C13H11NO2) 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Methyl-3-(4-nitrophenyl)benzene 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.
