Chemical Structure

(5-Nitro-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)methanol CAS 101421-10-7 chemical structure

Description

(5-Nitro-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)methanol (C8H7N3O3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

(5-Nitro-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)methanol (CAS 101421-10-7), molecular formula C8H7N3O3 and molecular weight 193.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
