Chemical Structure

2-(Chloromethyl)-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-1h-imidazole hydrochloride CAS 135206-93-8 chemical structure

Description

2-(Chloromethyl)-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-1h-imidazole hydrochloride (C6H6ClF3N2) contains a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
