Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-1H-naphtho[1,2-d]imidazol-5-amine CAS 13727-97-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Methyl-1H-naphtho[1,2-d]imidazol-5-amine (CAS 13727-97-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H11N3, MW 197.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Methyl-1H-naphtho[1,2-d]imidazol-5-amine (C12H11N3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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-Methyl-1H-naphtho[1,2-d]imidazol-5-amine 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.
