Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-3-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine CAS 1379338-63-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-Bromo-3-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine (CAS 1379338-63-2), molecular formula C8H6BrN3 and molecular weight 224.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Bromo-3-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine (C8H6BrN3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine 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.

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.
