Chemical Structure

1-methylimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid CAS 1378811-63-2 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 1-methylimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid (CAS 1378811-63-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8N2O2, MW 176.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1-methylimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid (C9H8N2O2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. 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).

CATO manufactures 1-methylimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid 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.
