Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-2,4-dimethyl-1H-imidazole CAS 1049118-07-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 175.03 g/mol gives 5-Bromo-2,4-dimethyl-1H-imidazole distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5-Bromo-2,4-dimethyl-1H-imidazole (CAS 1049118-07-1), molecular formula C5H7BrN2 and molecular weight 175.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C5H7BrN2, 5-Bromo-2,4-dimethyl-1H-imidazole contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 175.03 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), 5-Bromo-2,4-dimethyl-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.
