Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylate CAS 132525-00-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 3-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Methyl 3-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylate (CAS 132525-00-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H12N2O2, MW 252.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Methyl 3-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylate (C15H12N2O2) 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.

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.
