Chemical Structure

2-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)acetic Acid Hydrochloride CAS 1297344-60-5 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 2-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)acetic Acid Hydrochloride.

2-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)acetic Acid Hydrochloride (CAS 1297344-60-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H6N2O2HCl and a molecular weight of 162.57 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 2-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)acetic Acid Hydrochloride (C5H6N2O2HCl) is characterized by an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)acetic Acid Hydrochloride under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
