Chemical Structure

(2-Chloroethyl)(cyano)ethylamine CAS 997-78-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 132.59 g/mol gives (2-Chloroethyl)(cyano)ethylamine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

(2-Chloroethyl)(cyano)ethylamine (CAS 997-78-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H9ClN2 and a molecular weight of 132.59 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, (2-Chloroethyl)(cyano)ethylamine is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 132.59 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

CATO manufactures (2-Chloroethyl)(cyano)ethylamine under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
