Chemical Structure

2-(2-Bromophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole CAS 14225-84-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(2-Bromophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(2-Bromophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (CAS 14225-84-4), molecular formula C14H11BrN2 and molecular weight 287.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(2-Bromophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (C14H11BrN2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. 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-(2-Bromophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole 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.
