Chemical Structure

4-(2-Chloroacetyl)-5-methyl-1H-imidazol-2(3H)-one CAS 118097-30-6 chemical structure

Description

4-(2-Chloroacetyl)-5-methyl-1H-imidazol-2(3H)-one (C6H7ClN2O2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
