Chemical Structure

methyl 5-amino-1-benzyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate CAS 104316-76-9 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 methyl 5-amino-1-benzyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate.

CATO supplies methyl 5-amino-1-benzyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate (CAS 104316-76-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H13N3O2, MW 231.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, methyl 5-amino-1-benzyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 231.25 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), methyl 5-amino-1-benzyl-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate 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.
