2-[(4-ethoxyÂethoxy-3-methyl-2-pyridinylÂ)-methylÂthio]-benzÂimidazole (CAS 121306-13-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H21N3O2S and a molecular weight of 343.44 g/mol.
2-[(4-ethoxyÂethoxy-3-methyl-2-pyridinylÂ)-methylÂthio]-benzÂimidazole (C18H21N3O2S) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
