Chemical Structure

2-(3-Ethoxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxylic acid CAS 1018255-95-2 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(3-Ethoxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxylic acid (C17H16N2O4) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO supplies 2-(3-Ethoxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-5-carboxylic acid (CAS 1018255-95-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H16N2O4, MW 312.32 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
