The occurrence of 4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-{[3-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)propyl]amino}-4-oxobutanoic acid is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-{[3-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)propyl]amino}-4-oxobutanoic acid (CAS 1214797-41-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H18ClN3O3, MW 335.79 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-{[3-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)propyl]amino}-4-oxobutanoic acid (C16H18ClN3O3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 335.79 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
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.
