Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 268.31 g/mol gives 2-(2,3-Dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(2,3-Dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (CAS 1305744-46-0), molecular formula C16H16N2O2 and molecular weight 268.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(2,3-Dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (C16H16N2O2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(2,3-Dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]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.
