Chemical Structure
Description
Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-[(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzonitrile.
3-[(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzonitrile (CAS 1016716-83-8), molecular formula C12H11N3 and molecular weight 197.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
3-[(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzonitrile (C12H11N3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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).
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.
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.
