Chemical Structure

2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-1H-imidazole CAS 102151-45-1 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-1H-imidazole (CAS 102151-45-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H12N2O, MW 188.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-1H-imidazole (C11H12N2O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-1H-imidazole meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
