Chemical Structure

2-Benzoylacetanilide CAS 959-66-0 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C15H13NO2, 2-Benzoylacetanilide contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 239.27 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

2-Benzoylacetanilide (CAS 959-66-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H13NO2 and a molecular weight of 239.27 g/mol.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Benzoylacetanilide 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.
