Chemical Structure

4,5-Dibromo-2-(ethylthio)-1-(methoxymethyl)-1H-imidazole CAS 101853-81-0 chemical structure

Description

4,5-Dibromo-2-(ethylthio)-1-(methoxymethyl)-1H-imidazole (CAS 101853-81-0), molecular formula C7H10Br2N2OS and molecular weight 330.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 4,5-Dibromo-2-(ethylthio)-1-(methoxymethyl)-1H-imidazole is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 330.04 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.
